    strong enough?

    So, for a little while I've been considering hanging a hammock on my porch. But, I'm a little unsure whether the beam I want to hang it from is strong enough. I've included some pictures and wanted to get your thoughts. I'm in the bottom apartment. The beam is 12 ft. long, 11" high, and 5.5" wide. I weigh 160 lbs. I have also considered just hanging a hammock from it for my daughter who is only 30 lbs. The last picture shows a gap where I'd be able to loop the suspension around the beam. Your thoughts?
