coints) use the AISC-LRFD method and select the lightest W21 shape A992 Steel for the simply supported floor beam B1 shown in the floor plan below. Select the member for bending and deflection and check it for shear and compactness. The allowable live load deflection is L/360. The total factored distributed load (including self-weight) is 2.214 kift and the service live load is 0.934 k/ft. The span is 30 ft. Assume that the floor provides continuous lateral support to the top flange of the beam. 16.8 B1 6.5 307 FLOOR PLAN W21x44 !
