Depth, d = 498mm
Web thickness, tw = 56mm
Moment of Inertia about x-axis, Ix = 3417 x 106 mm4
Section Modulus about x-axis, Sx = 13730 x 103 mm3
Self-weight, wself-weight = 7.32 kN/m
Assume the beam is laterally supported over its length with its allowable stress in bending is 0.66Fy and its allowable shear stress is 0.40Fy assuming direct shear stress is used as basis instead of flexural shear stress. The allowable deflection is set at L/360. Use A36 steel with Fy = 250 MPa.
(a) Compute for the safe uniform load (w) without exceeding the allowable shear stress.
(b) Compute for the safe uniform load (w) without exceeding the allowable bending stress.
(c) Compute for the safe uniform load (w) without exceeding the allowable deflection.
