(30-points) The following beam is under a uniformly distributed load, is 36' long and is constructed of a W36x194 section and A992 steel. It is laterally supported at the supports and at midspan (18').(i) determine Cb for the beam, (ii) determine the moment capacity of the beam, Mn,(iii) calculate the maximum moment acting on the beam, Mu, in terms of wu,(iv) calculate the maximum value of wu that can be supported by the beam, and (v) assuming wu is the service load and that the live load is twice the dead load, determine the maximum possible values of the dead and live load for the beam.
