A W 360 x 744 is used as a beam to support a concrete floor system. The floor is to carry atotal load of 250 kPa. The beam is simply supported over a span of 6 m. Assume the beamis laterally supported over its length. Use A36 steel with Fy = 250 MPa. Allowabledeflection is L/360.a. Determine the center to center spacing of the beams without exceeding the allowableshear stress.b. Determine the center to center spacing of the beams without exceeding the allowablebending stress.c. Determine the center to center spacing of the beams without exceeding the allowabledeflection.
Use Allowable Strength Design. Use A992 steel and select a W-shape for the following beam: •         Simply supported with a span length of 40 feet •         Laterally braced only at the ends •         Service dead load = 0.4 kips/ft •         Service live load = 1.2 kips/ft •         The service dead load consists of a 10 kip concentrated load at the center of the span. •         The service live load consists of a 30 kip concentrated load at the center of the span. There is no limit on the deflection.
