The beam is fabricated from two 1 in. by 10 in. wooden boards nailed to a 2 in. by 6 in. flange board. The centroid location of the fabricated cross section is shown in the sketch, and the moment of inertia of the cross section about the z centroidal axis is I = 290.667 in^4. If the allowable shear resistance of each nail is 80 lb, determine the maximum spacing interval s that is acceptable for the built-up beam.
