PROBLEM SOLVING
1.) A simply supported beam has an I-section made from A36 steel. Flanges are 450 mm by 20 mm
and the web is 500 mm by 20 mm. Calculate the maximum moment that the beam can carry if the
span is 6 meters.
2.) An eccentric load of 230KN is placed at the certain distance of 180mm from the x-axis and at a
distance “e” from the y-axis. Determine “e” given Fy= 345MPa, k=1.0, Fb= 0.6Fy, L= 4.5m.
3.) A simply supported beam has an I – Section made from 3 A36 steel plates welded together. Flanges
are 450 x 20mm and web is 500 x 20mm. Check the adequacy of the beam against shear when L = 4
m, and w = 430 kN/m.
