Determine if a W27 × 84 beam in an existing building can carry a point load of 120kips in the center of the span. Assume the beam is simply supported and the span is 24ft. Also, assume the top flange is fully braced for the entire span. Use A36 steel and ASD method. If the beam does not have enough capacity, reinforces the beam using a 5/8" thick plate. Determine the width and the length of the plate.
