Determine the long-term deflection (greater than 60 months) for the section shown below. Assume that 20% of the live load is sustained. The loads on the beam are provided below. The concrete is normal weight, f.' = 4,500 psi, and f, = 60,000 psi. The span of the beam is 26-ft and is simply supported. Assume the clear cover is 1.5 in. and #4 stirrups. For the maximum deflection of the beam use the basic deflection equation below. (40 pts.) 5w14 Amax= 384E1 Unfactored uniformly distributed loads: WD = 1.4 kips/ft (includes self-weight) WL = 1.6 kips/ft 12 in. 32.5 In 3 6 In. O OO OO 6 No. 9 bars
