Feb 22, 2020 at 12:09 comment added Bob D It is mechanical stress that causes failure not force alone. That makes the geometry at the impact site critical and also makes this an engineering problem not physics concepts and therefore off topic
Feb 22, 2020 at 9:39 comment added Sheldon well safe means I have to design the part in such a way that it is not broken when the beam trips over it. Actually it is a disc that is falling , but for simplicity I have taken a beam for calculations.

Feb 21, 2020 at 20:43 comment added Bob D Are you familiar with the work-energy theorem? It will give you the average impact force. And what do you mean by "safe"?
