Question
A W18 x 50 beam is simply supported on 10-in.-thick concrete walls at both ends as shown in the figure. Determine the required thickness if N=6-in. x B=8-in. bearing plate will be placed assuming the following:
Beam span= 20 ft center to center of support
ASTM A36 steel for the beam and bearing plate
DL = 5kips/ft; LL = 2 kips/ft; f’c = 4000 psi
For a W18x50:
k = 0.972in
tw = 0.355in
d = 18 in
tf = 0.57in
k1=13/16
