Use LFRD for Probs. except as indicated. Use both methods for all others. Considering moment only and assuming full lateral support for the compression flanges, select the lightest sections available, using 50 ksi steel and the LRFD method. The loads shown include the effect of the beam self-weights. Use elastic analysis factored loads and the 0.9 rule. FIGURE 10-5 D 05 klf -2klf 15 ft- 40 it

Beams

In structural engineering, a beam is a component made of a variety of materials (including steel alloys, and wood) that can resist loads applied laterally to the beam axis. Members, elements, rafters, shafts, and purlins are all terms used to describe beams.
