List four types of failures for structural steel structures.
What is the cracking moment of the beam having a cross section shown in Figure 1if f ‘c = 28 MPa?.
1.) What is the value of the bending moment (kN m) that will cause the beam to crack? 2.) Determine the bending stress (MPa) in the extreme fiber in compression due to the cracking moment? 3.) In addition to its own weight, what uniformly distributed load (kN/m) can the beam safely carry before it cracks?
