3. A beam has the following distributed loads : wD = 0.44 kip/ft, and wL 0.76 kips. If the beam is W 18 x 50, braced at the ends and third points, made from A992 steel, by directly applying the provisions of the AISC Specification, what is the available flexural strength of this beam? What is the adequacy of this beam in providing the required flexural strength.
