A steel beam is simply-supported at each end and has a span of X metres. It supports a Point Load at midspan. The characteristic values of this load are as follows: Gk (Permanent Action) = F KN, Qk (Variable Action) = (F+ 100) KN You may ignore the self-weight of the beam in your calculations. Determine the ULS loading for this beam and sketch the ULS loading diagram and the ULS shear force and bending moment diagrams. Determine the maximum ULS shear force and bending moment. Determine the SLS loading and the maximum SLS bending moment. Select an economical Universal Beam section in Grade S275 steel for this beam from the section tables based on moment capacity.
