Chapter 15.2, Problem 4P
The brick wall exerts a uniform distributed load of 1.20 kip/ft on the beam. If the allowable bending stress is σallow = 22 ksi and the allowable shear stress is τallow = 12 ksi, select the lightest wide-flange section with the shortest depth from Appendix B that will safely support the load. If there are several choices of equal weight, choose the one with the shortest height.
