SITUATION. A W section is used as a beam with a simple span of 6 m. The beam carries a total uniform ultimate load (dead plus live) of 80 kN/m including selfweight. Properties of W section: tw = 9.91 mm k = 30.5 mm A = 12300 mm² d = 307 mm lx = 222 x 106mm² rx = 134 mm bf = 305 mm Zx = 1590 x 10³ mm Sx 1440 x 10³ mm³ tf = 15.40 mm ry = 76.7 mm J = 907 x 10³ mm² rts = 85 mm Cb = 1.136 Yield Strength, Fy = 345 MPa Strength reduction factor (for flexure), p = 0.90 1. Evaluate the ultimate moment capacity if it is laterally supported at midspan. 2. Evaluate the ultimate moment capacity if the beam is laterally unsupported. 3. Evaluate the ultimate moment capacity if the beam is 12 meters long with no lateral supports.
