Compute the initial deflection of the beam at midspan under service loads with the following specifications: f'c = 4000 psi, 36-inch height, depth of rebar assumed to be 3 inches less than the height, 16-inch width, 4 #9 bars (tension), Grade 60 rebar, 30' clear spans, service loads of: DL = 0.25k/ft, LL = 1.2k/ft. The DL does NOT include self-weight of the beam or of the precast concrete deck planks that have a weight of 60 PSF. The beam picks up a tributary width of 12 feet. Also, note that this beam is continuous and is the middle beam of 5 equal spans. Check the initial deflections against the ACI deflection requirements. Then calculate the long-term deflections and check those against the ACI requirements. For both situations, assume that finish materials will be attached to the beam. Last: Instead of performing a structural analysis to determine the maximum deflection in the beam, conservatively figure that the maximum deflection will be 60% of what it would have been for a…

Example 13 The frame structure shown in Fig. is used to support a hoist for transferring loads for storage at points underneath it. It is anticipated that the load on the dolly is 3kN and the beam CB has a mass of 24 kg/m. Assume the dolly has negligible size and can travel the entire length of the beam. Also, assume A is a pin and B is a roller. Determine the maximum vertical support reactions at A and B and the maximum moment in the -1 m-1.5 m- -1.5 m- beam at D. A 3 kN (a)
