Question: ( 5 ) Select a suitable UB section to function as a simply supported beam carrying a 1 4 0 m m thick solid concrete

(5) Select a suitable UB section to function as a simply supported beam carrying a 140mm thick
solid concrete slab together with an imposed load of 7.0kNm2. Beam span is 7.2m and
beams are spaced at 3.6m intervals. The slab may be assumed capable of providing
continuous lateral restraint to the beam's top flange.
(40 Marks)
Due to restraint from slab there is no possibility of lateral-torsional buckling, so design beam
for:
a) Moment capacity
b) Shear capacity
c) Deflection limit
