The 7.2m simply supported beam is loaded with a uniform load Wu. It has an effective depth of 430mm and a width of 250 mm. It has 2-legged 10mm diameter stirrups spaced at 130mm on centers all throughout the beam length. Determine the maximum Wu that the beam can carry based on the shear capacity of the beam. Use fc' =21MPa and fy=276MPa.
