Select the lightest rolled shape W section steel beam for a member with a simply- supported span of 16 ft. The beam must support a uniformly distributed load of D= 2.1 k/ft and L= 4.5 k/ft. Lateral support of the compression flange is provided at the ends and the centerline of the beam span. Determine a value of Cb. Neglect the beam self-weight and use A992, Grade 50 steel. As part of your answer indicate the following: Member selected W_x Cb = OMn Mu
