Your goal is to design one of the floor beams of the building Consider a portion of the floor away from the stairs and elevators where things are simple. The floor beams are the beams that directly support the slab. On the floor plan drawing, these are the beams that run parallel to the numbered column lines. For example, you could design one of the floor beams that is between column line 3 and column line 4. Note, these floor beams are continuous (there are 3 spans: A-B, B-C, and C-D) and experience uniformly distributed loads from the slab, so you can use the approximate equations in Section 6.5 of the code to compute moments and shears for design. Use a live load of 75psf for the whole floor. For dead load, assume 20 psf superimposed dead load (plus the weight of the slab and the beam itself). You can use your slab design from the previous assignment, or if you are uncertain you can use a 6" thick slab. Use Grade 60 steel and normal weight concrete with f'c = 4000 psi Consider all applicable limit states for the design of the beam. To the best of your ability, incorporate code detailing requirements. Please contact me if there is additional information you need to complete this design. Submission Requirements You may submit your assignment as a handwritten (and scanned) document or as a spreadsheet or document file. Please include elevation and cross-sectional drawings including beam dimensions and indicating where the reinforcing steel in your beam should be placed. Throughout your work, make sure that you explain your choices and justify the numbers you are using. You should document your work in such a way that you could hand your assignment to another student in the class and they would be able to follow your thought process and calculations.
