Question

The simply supported beam shown below was
designated as W16X31. Using A572 Gr. 50
steel and assuming continuous bracing.
There are two concentrated live loads at 50
kips and no dead loads acting on the beam
(neglect self-weight).
• Is the beam adequate to carry the live loads
considering flexure?
• Is the beam adequate to carry the live loads
considering shear?
• Considering allowable shear strength, what is
the maximum uniform dead load which can still
be added?
