Chapter 5.3, Problem 91P
Each of the three rolled-steel beams shown (numbered 1, 2, and 3) is to carry a 64-kip load uniformly distributed over the beam. Each of these beams has a 12-ft span and is to be supported by the two 24-ft rolled-steel girders AC and BD. Knowing that the allowable normal stress for the steel used is 24 ksi, select (a) the most economical S shape for the three beams, (b) the most economical W shape for the two girders.

Q.I. An I-section beam, 150 mm wide by 250 mm deep, with flange and
web of thickness 20 mm is used as a simply supported beam over a span of 7
m. The beam carries a distributed load of 6 kN/m and a concentrated load of
30 kN at mid-span. Determine: (a) the second moment of area of the cross-
section of the girder, (b) the maximum stress set-up.
