I was having trouble finding the "minimum required crosssectional properties of Beam AB to satisfy both the ultimate ie strength and serviceability ie deflection limit states for the beam" which then made it hard to complete the second part of part B Can you please show both the momentarea theorems and the virtual work principle for part B THANKS

A steel framing plan that supports a reinforced concrete floor is shown in Figure The reinforced
concrete floor is thick; the self weight of the steel beams is equivalent to a uniformly
distributed surface load of ; the superimposed dead load on the floor is and
the specified live load on the floor is Assume the unit weight of reinforced concrete to
be

marks a Develop the shear force and bending moment diagrams for Beam AB under the total
factored dead and live loads based on a dead load factor of and a live load factor of
marks b Determine the minimum required crosssectional properties of Beam to satisfy
both the ultimate ie strength and serviceability ie deflection limit states for the beam. The
deflection control criterion requires that the maximum deflection of Beam under the specified
live load not exceed Assume MPa,MPa,MPa, resistance
factor and crosssectional properties to be constant throughout the beam.
Note: Either the momentarea theorems or virtual work principle may be used to compute the
maximum deflection of Beam In either case, the appropriate bending moment diagrams
MUST be drawn.
