Question: A 1 2 x 8 x 1 6 fully grouted masonry lintel supports a uniformly distributed superimposed load shown below. The dead load shown does

A 12x8x16 fully grouted masonry lintel supports a uniformly distributed superimposed load
shown below. The dead load shown does not include the self weight of the beam.
Material Properties:
i) Masonry Compressive stress, fm'=2,500 psi
ii) Normal Weight Masonry, (density =135 pcf)
iii) Portland Cement Mortar Type S, running bond construction
iv) ASTM A615 Grade 60 steel reinforcement
Determine the adequacy of the reinforced beam to carry the loads in
flexure/bending. Show all your calculations and do not use any design tables.
Remember to check all reinforcement limits. Remember to include the self weight of
the beam. Mn=766.5k-in =63.8k-ft
a) If the beam is inadequate to support the loading, what changes are required to
make the beam adequate. Is Mn>Mu?
Determine the adequacy of the beam to resist the given loads in shear.
Vn=50.7k
Calculate the moment of inertia for the gross section and for the cracked section.
In=62,000in4,Icr=8,019in4
Determine if the beam satisfies IBC deflection criteria.
The Red numbers are the answers so the work should align with those. Please answer properly as this is my 3 time uploading.
