Determine the lightest W10 section (based on flexural strength) suitable for a 6.1 m simply-supported beam supporting distributed dead load of 14.5 kN/m, which includes the weight of the beam, and a uniformly distributed live load of 43.7 kN/m. The beam is continuously braced on its compression flange and has a yield stress of 345 MPa. Use LRFD. ⒸW10x68 O W10X60 O W10X54 O W10X77 O W10X88 O W10X15
