Question: A 1 2 - ft - long cantilever supports its own weight plus an additional uniform dead load of 0 . 5 kip / ft

A 12-ft-long cantilever supports its own weight plus an additional uniform dead load
of 0.5 kip/ft. The beam is made from normal-weight 4,000 psi concrete and has b=16 in.,
d=15.5in., and h=18 in. It is reinforced with four No.7 Grade-60 bars. Compute the maximum
concentrated live load that can be applied at 1 ft from the free end of the cantilever.
a) Draw a cantilever and indicate all the loads
b) Draw a beam cross-section indicating the location and area of the reinforcements.
c) Compute the
d) Determine the maximum concentrated live load that can be applied at 1ft from the free
end of the cantilever
