For this exercise consider the single-bay building framing plan shown below, which you have considered previously. It has been decided to change from concrete framing to structural steel framing. A steel deck and concrete slab with a total thickness of five inches spans between the steel beams, and the steel beams are supported by steel girders along two edges. Assume all beams and girders are simple span and design the interior beams and edge girders. Use a design live load of 80 pounds per square foot. The slab dead load is 70 pounds per square foot, which includes the weight of the slab, beams, girders, and superimposed dead loads (mechanical, ceiling, floor finish, etc.). The beams may be assumed to have continuous lateral support from the floor slab. The girders should be assumed to be braced only by the beams (i.e., unbraced length equals beam spacing). The columns supporting the framing have been designed and do not need to be considered. Use steel yield strength Fy = 50 ksi for…
For the following floor plan design member M3 as a T-shape beam. Use the following information: slab thickness = 3.5 in. f'c = 4000 psi fy = 60000 psi. = 103 psf WD=82 psf (not including the weight of the slab) Make sure to include the weight of the self weight of the slab when calculating M₁. Include a drawing of the final cross section of the beam Ensure that M, is not more than 10% of м. Make sure that you complete all the checks. Ignore serviceability check.
12-23. A particle is moving along a straight line such that its acceleration is defined as a = (-2v) m/s², where v is in meters per second. If v = 20 m/s when s = 0 and t = 0, determine the particle's position, velocity, and acceleration as functions of time.
