**Assignment 5.1 - Steel Beam Analysis**

**Beam Specifications:**
- Type: W 10 x 88 A992 Steel
- Service Loads:
  - Dead Load (\( \omega_d \)) = 600 lb/ft
  - Live Load (\( \omega_l \)) = 1,200 lb/ft

**Diagram Description:**
- The beam is supported at both ends and at points dividing its span into three equal sections of 10 ft each, making the total length 30 ft.
- Lateral support is provided at both ends and at the one-third points along the beam.

**Task:**
- Check to see whether the given section can safely carry the applied loads.

The diagram illustrates the beam with symbols indicating points of lateral support, showing that support is distributed evenly along the beam's length. Analyze the loading conditions to determine if the beam can sustain the specified loads without failure.
