Example 11.2
A simple beam of length L = 15 ft carries a uniform load of q = 900
lb/ft and a concentrated load P = 8000 lb, as shown in the
following figure. Assuming an allowable stress of 18,000 psi,
calculate the required section modulus S, and select a 12-inch
wide-flange beam (W shape) from table E-1. Recalculate S taking
into account the weight of the beam and select a new section if
necessary (5-6.4).
