A W24x250 is used as a beam to support a concrete slab floor
system with a one-way traffic pattern. The floor must be able to
support a total load of 175 kPa (30% DL, 70% LL, self-weight is
included in DL). Over a span of 3.6/2 m, the beam is simply
supported. Assume the beam is supported laterally along its length.
Use Fy = 248 MPa. The allowable deflection permitted by service
loads is L/360. Use the ASD.
1. Based on shear capacity, what is the center-to-center spacing of
the beams (m)?
2. Based on the flexural capacity, what is the center-to-center
spacing of the beams (m)?
3. Based on the allowable deflection, what is the center-to-center
spacing of the beams (m)?
