Question: W D L = self - weight only P L = 5 0 k Beam is braced at ends only See AISC Manual Table 3

WDL= self-weight only
PL=50k
Beam is braced at ends only
See AISC Manual Table 3-1, p3-18 for values of Cb
LRFD Design Method:
a.(5 points) Determine the moment that the beam needs to be designed to take assuming that the beamweight is approximately 0.10kft.(HINT: See Table 3-22 in the AISC Manual)
b.(10 points) Select the lightest wide flange section that will support the loads shown.
ASD Design Method:
a.(5 points) Determine the moment that the beam needs to be designed to take assuming that the beam selfweight is approximately 0.10kft.
b.(10 points) Select the lightest wide flange section that will support the loads shown.
Deflection: (5 points) For the beam selected by the ASD method, calculate the deflection at mid span due to Live Load ONLY: (Use value of C1 from Manual, page 3-9)
W D L = self - weight only P L = 5 0 k Beam is
