Question: DIAGRAM SHEET 1 , FIGURE 2 ( attached ) shows a steel beam supported on TWOreactions, 9 metres apart, then extends a further 2 metres

DIAGRAM SHEET 1, FIGURE 2(attached) shows a steel beam supported on TWOreactions, 9 metres apart, then extends a further 2 metres to form a balcony. The steelbeam will be required to carry THREE point loads and TWO uniformly distributedloads.Select a suitable I-section parallel flange steel beam to ensure the building is safe.Use the following scales:Load diagram: 140 mm =11 mShear force: 2 mm =1 kNBending moment: 3 mm =1 kN.mThe permissible bending stress for grade 43 mild steel is 160 MPa.The maximum shear stress must not exceed 100 MPa.2.1 Calculate the value of the reactions at RL and RR.(4)2.2 Determine the values of the shear forces at each intersection. Draw the shearforce diagram. Insert all the values on the diagram. (4)2.3 Calculate and draw the bending moment diagram. Insert the value of thebending moment's maximum in the diagram. (6)2.4 Calculate the maximum section modulus for the loaded beam. (3)2.5 Select a suitable I-section parallel flange for the loaded beam from the BOE8/2 steel tables. (1)2.6 Calculate the maximum shear stress in the chosen steel beam which shouldnot exceed 100 MPa.
