Consider a W30x99 beam (Fy = 60 ksi) that is simply supported, 30 ft. long, and subjected to a point load
at the midspan. The point service load consists of 60% live load and 40% dead load. Lateral supports exist
at the ends only. Design code to comply with: 2016 AISC LRFD.

(a) Determine the maximum point service load P for strong-axis bending assuming Cb = 1.0.
(b) Redetermine the maximum point service load P for strong-axis bending considering proper Cb value.
