Question: A beam is constructed from a W shape and a C shape, both of A 3 6 steel, as shown. Two equal loads remain 3

A beam is constructed from a W shape and a C shape, both of A 36 steel, as shown. Two
equal loads remain 3ft apart as they move across a 40ft span. Sufficient lateral support is provided so that
the allowable bending stress is 0.6 Fy. The beam is not subjected to impact loading. Determine the absolute
value of the actual shear stress (anywhere in the beam) corresponding to the value of P obtained in
consideration to the moment. (Use NSCP 2010)
