A cantilever beam AB of length L = 6.5 ft supportsa trapezoidal distributed load of peak intensity q,and minimum intensity q/2, that includes the weight ofthe beam (see figure). The beam is a steel W12 X14wide-flange shape (see Table F-1(a), Appendix F).Calculate the maximum permissible load q basedupon (a) an allowable bending stress σallow =18 ksiand (b) an allowable shear stress τallow = 7.5 ksi.Note: Obtain the moment of inertia and section modulusof the beam from Table F-1(a).
How much service live load, in kips per foot, can be supported? The member weight is the only dead load. The axial compressive load consists of a service dead load of 10 kips and a service live load of 20 kips. Do not consider moment amplification. Bending is about the x axis, and the steel is A992.                 a. Use LRFD.                                                                                                           b. Use ASD.
A built up I-section is formed from plates welded together as shown in the figure. It is to be used as a column L = 4.8 m long. All elements are A36 steel and connected such the section is fully effective. Using the following properties, calculate the flexural buckling stress, Fcr, in MPa using theoretical k. Flanges: b = 190 mm, tf = 16 mm Web: h = 340 mm, tw = 7 mm
