A W section is having a span of 6 m. It carries a normal concentrated load of 110 KN at its midspan and a lateral concentrated load of 23 KN at its midspan which passes through the centroid of the section. Assume the beam to be fully laterally supported for the compression flange. Use A36 steel with Fy = 248 MPa. Refer to AISC Shapes Database for the section properties. Consider the self-weight of the beam. Check the adequacy of the following sections: a. W 14x74 b. W 16x78 c. W 21x62 d. W 14x95

Question
A W section is having a span of 6 m. It carries a normal
concentrated load of 110 KN at its midspan and a lateral
concentrated load of 23 KN at its midspan which passes
through the centroid of the section. Assume the beam to be
fully laterally supported for the compression flange. Use A36
steel with Fy = 248 MPa. Refer to AISC Shapes Database for
the section properties. Consider the self-weight of the
beam. Check the adequacy of the following sections:
a. W 14x74
b. W 16x78
c. W 21x62
d. W 14x95
