Open question
AENAT2 marksNeeds review
The shear flow distribution in a single cell, thin-walled beam under the action of an arbitrary shear load

applied at the shear centre S is shown in the figure. The cell has horizontal symmetry with booms marked by 1 to 4 that carry direct stresses. The shear modulus G is the same for all the walls, and the area of the cell is 13000 mm

. With respect to the point O marked in the figure, the distance to the shear centre S is _____ mm. (round off to the nearest integer)
