Question

Transcribed Image Text:The reinforced concrete beams of a floor system are
spaced at 8 ft on-center and are supporting a floor
dead load of 50 psf and a live load of 80 psf. The
span of the beam L is 20 ft.
Assuming that the beams are simply supported on
the building columns, determine:
a. the factored load in lbs/ft that each beam must
support;
b. the factored shear force diagram in each beam;
indicate the amplitude and location of the maximum
factored shear force; indicate also your sign
convention;
c. the factored bending moment diagram in each
beam; indicate the amplitude and location of the
maximum factored moment; indicate also your sign
convention.
