Question

For each loading and span case given below choose an appropriate wide flanged beam, from the attached images, to resist the applied bending forces. Assume that A36 Steel is used (i.e., the yield strength is 36 ksi) for the attached images and that the allowable stress is 2/3rds the yield strength. If no beam is available what could you do to get a design to work?

Case 1: A 20,000-pound force applied in the center of a 15-foot span of a simply supported beam.

Case 2: A 20,000-pound force applied in the center of a 30-foot span of a simply supported beam.

Case 3: A 20,000-pound force applied in the center of a 45-foot span of a simply supported beam.

Case 4: A 90 kN force applied in the center of a 5 meter span of a simply supported beam.

Case 5: A 90 kN force applied in the center of a 10 meter span of a simply supported beam.

Case 6: A 90 kN force applied in the center of a 15 meter span of a simply supported beam.
