Problem 2 Serviceability: Deflection using ACI method (40 Points)
10ft cantilever beam shown in the figure 2. has external dead load including its own weight of 0.5kft and live load of 0.4kft.
Fc'=4000,fy=60,000,Es=29000ksi. Rectangular cross section has total width of 10", full depth of 18". Concrete cover is given as 2".3#9 are used as a tension Rebars. if 35% of L.L is continuously applied for 3 years Determine:
Instantaneous or Short-term deflection due to Dead Load Only. (15 Points)
Short term defection due to Dead load + Live Load Only. (5 Points)
Short term deflection due to L.L only. (2 Points)
Instantaneous deflection due to D.L+ Sustained Live Load. (8 Points)
Deflection for Sustained Live Load only. (2 Points)
Calculate the Long-term deflection (LT)(8 Points)
Hint: Make sure you use cantilever beam deflection formula for short term deflection.
