A composite floor system consists of W18 x 97 beams and a 5-inch-thick reinforced concrete floor slab. The span length is 30 feet, and the beams are spaced at 8 feet. In addition to the weight of the slab, there is a construction load of 20 psf and a uniform live load of 800 psf. Assume that there is no latera support during the construction phase. A992 steel is used, and f = 4 ksi. A. Compute the maximum deflection before the concrete is cured considering the dead load and the construction load [ Select ] v in. B. Compute the maximum deflection after the concrete is cured and composite behavior has been attained. [ Select ] in
