Question: Problem Statement: A W 1 8 x 3 5 beam ( A 9 9 2 ) is simply supported, spans 2 5 ' - 0

Problem Statement: A W18x35 beam (A992) is simply supported, spans 25'-0'', and is laterally braced only at the supports. It is subjected to a triangularly distributed snow load with maximum magnitude w(in units of force per length). Assume all other loads, including self-weight, are negligible.
Considering only flexural strength, determine the maximum snow load that the beam can support.
