Question

Transcribed Image Text:SITUATION 1
A fully-restrained beam with span length
of 10 meters was designed using ASTM
A36 steel (Fy = 250 MPa) rolled as
W16x57 section. Lateral bracing was
only provided on the supports and on
third points. The said beam is to be
subjected to a super-imposed uniformly
distributed dead load of 5.00 kN/m and a
total uniformly distributed live load of
20.00 kN/m. The only deflection limit
imposed for the design of the said
structure is that its deflection at midspan
due to total service loads should not
exceed its span length divided by 150.
Assess if the designed section for the
beam is adequate for its purpose.
Consider flexure, shear, and the imposed
deflection limit. Use ASD specifications.
Assume unstiffened webs.

- A 35-feet simply-supported floor beam, made of ASTM A572 Gr. 50 (Fy = 50 ksi) W18x50 hot-rolled section bent about its major axis, is to carry a superimposed uniform dead load of 0.45 kip/ft and uniform live load of 0.75 kip/ft throughout its entire span. The beam is braced against lateral deflection at its supports and at its midspan. Assess the adequacy of the beam to carry the given loads. Use IBC limits for satisfying deflection requirements.

The natural (fundamental) period of this frame as T-0.6 sec.

Based on the natural period, linearly interpolate the value of k that should be used for the equivalent lateral force method. 2. Using your interpolated value of k and the base shear, compute the vertical distribution of lateral loads. 3. Draw an elevation of the frame showing the lateral loads applied to each floor and the roof. 4. Assuming k-2, compute the vertical distribution of lateral loads. 5. Draw an elevation of the frame showing the lateral loads applied to each floor and the roof when k=2.arrow_forward
