Problem 3: Deflection Check
Consider the BF beam (steel: \(\mathrm{E}=200\mathrm{GPa}\)) with a span of 7 m and a tributary width of 3 m (Figure 3). The total permanent load acting on the BF beam is 4.2 kPa (this includes self-weight and permanent load). Assume the floor is part of a gymnasium (refer to NBCC Table 4.1.5.3 for live load in kPa ).
a) Find the maximum factored moment Mf in \(\mathrm{kN}\cdot \mathrm{m}\) that the beam must resist using the load combination: 1.25D +1.5 L . Select a beam (from the table on the next page) with a capacity Mr \(\geqq \) Mf under this load combination.|
b) Does the beam selected in part a) meet the serviceability deflection limit (L/360) under the live load? If not, choose a beam that would be suitable.
