For bending only, determine the lightest-weight W-shape
to carry a uniform dead load of 4.5 kip/ft plus the
beam self-weight and a live load of 3.5 kip/ft on a simple
span of 24 ft. Consider only the limit state of yielding and
use A992 steel. Design by (a) LRFD

The service load bending moments on a beam are 128 kip-ft for dead load and 107 kip-ft for live load. The beam is 12 in. wide, f’c is 3000 psi and fy is 60 ksi. Determine Mu, Mt, p, R, the depth of the beam and the As of tensile reinforcing required. How many no. 8 bars or No. 10 bars would have the required As?

A 40 ft simple span beam is loaded with a uniform dead load of 2.4 kips/ft plus the beam self-weight and a uniform live load of 3.3 kips/ft. The lateral supports are located at the supports and at the midpoint of the span. Determine the leastweight W-shape to carry the load. Use A992 steel and Cb= 1.0. Design by (a) LRFD and (b) ASD.
