A W 14 x 500 is used as a beam to support a concrete floor system. The floor is to carry  a total load of 120 kPa. The beam is simply supported over a span of 7 meters. Assume  the beam is laterally supported over its length, the allowable bending stress is 0.66Fy,  and the allowable shear stress on gross section is 0.4Fy. Use A36 steel with Fy = 250  MPa. Determine the following: a. center-to-center spacing of the beams without exceeding the allowable bending  stress b. center-to-center spacing of the beams without exceeding the allowable shear stress.

Bars

In civil engineering, bars refer to steel reinforcement bars or rebars. These are structural members primarily used for reinforcement purposes in masonry works. A bar is characterized by its cross-sectional area, which is negligible compared to its length. Bars are usually manufactured by steel which is uniform throughout the length, or by meshing multiple steel wires. Other materials of the bar include carbon steel, glass fiber, carbon fiber, and basalt fiber. The reinforcing bars are coated with epoxy resins and other materials to enhance some of their properties including corrosion resistance.
