Question
Can someone please help me to solve the following strength of materials beam problem showing all diagrams and work thank you.
**Problem Statement:** **3. A992 Steel W Beam** **Objective:** Determine the maximum deflection for an A992 steel W beam, ensuring it does not exceed ½ inch. **Load and Beam Specifications:** - Distributed Load: 5 kip/ft - Span Length: 18 feet **Diagram Explanation:** The image shows a simply supported A992 steel W beam labeled from point A to point B. The beam is 18 feet in length and is subject to a uniformly distributed load of 5 kips per foot. The arrows pointing downward along the top of the beam represent this distributed load. The ends of the beam (A and B) are supported to resist this load, contributing to the structural analysis related to deflection limits. The objective is to ensure that the maximum deflection of the beam is less than or equal to ½ inch.
