Question
A steel beam ABC carries a uniformly distributed load of w (kN/m) over the unsupported
length BC, as shown in Figure Q3(a). The beam has a wide-flange section shown in Figure
Q3(b) and designated as W610 x 82 with geometrical properties as shown in Table 1.
Assuming that the beam behaves as elastic-perfectly plastic material with a yield strength of
210 MPa;
(a) Draw the moment diagram of the beam and indicate the section that carries the
maximum bending moment.
(b) Knowing the shape factor of the beam, k = 1.15 calculate the magnitude of wp (kN/m)
for the condition of plastic collapse/hinge.
(c) Determine the yielded length, L, (m) along the beam where the section has
experienced yielding corresponding to the plastic collapse condition (part (b)).
