Question: A uniformly distributed permanent load, G k , 1 = 1 5 k N m , an axial permanent load, G k , 2 =

A uniformly distributed permanent load, Gk,1=15kNm, an axial permanent load, Gk,2=300kN, a leading uniformly distributed variable load, Qk,1=25kNm, and an accompanying concentrated variable load, Qk,2=350kN are applied on a simply supported beam AB, as shown in the figure below. The beam is located on the 3rd floor of an office building and is made of steel S235. Given that the cross-section of the beam is the one shown in the figure,:
i) check the capacity of the beam as per EC3 based on ultimate limit state design, and
ii) check whether the deflection requirements of the beam are satisfied, as per EC3 based on serviceability limit state design.
