A simply supported beam is to span 15 feet it will support


A simply supported beam is to span 15 feet. It will support a uniformly distributed load of 2 kips per linear foot over the full span and a concentrated load of 60 kips at midspan. Total deflection is not to exceed span/240. Select the lightest (economical) steel wide flange section (W shape) with a yield stress of 50 ksi. Assume the beam weight to be 100 PLF
