Bearing plate is design to distribute the reaction of W12x65 with a span length of 12 ft center-to-center of supports. The total service load including the beam weight is 15 kips/ft with Live load / Dead load ratio equals to 2. The beam is to be supported on RC walls with f’c =4,000 psi. For the beam, Fy = 50 ksi and Fy = 36 ksi for the plate. Use LRFD. If ℓb = 8 inch and B = 14 inch, what is the minimum computed thickness of the bearing plate in inch?  Express your answer in three decimal places.
