Question
### Steel Beam Selection for Load Support #### Problem Statement: Select an adequate A992 W Shape to support 380 kips and 1140 kips of dead load and live load, respectively. Consider the support conditions from the figure. #### Diagram Explanation: The figure provides a visual representation of the support conditions for the beam: - **Left Side (Strong Axis):** - The beam spans a distance of 35 feet. - There are no intermediate supports along this span. - **Right Side (Weak Axis):** - The beam is supported at three points. - The first support is located 10 feet from the left end. - The second support is located 15 feet from the first support, or 25 feet from the left end. - The final support is located 10 feet from the second support, or at the right end of the beam. This diagram indicates that the beam is likely experiencing both bending and axial forces and must be designed accordingly. The strong axis and weak axis labels suggest the orientation of the beam in relation to its support conditions.
