Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A simply supported W-section beam is subjected to a uniform load. Calculate the maximum bending moment and identify the location of the neutral axis.

💡 Hint: Consider the load's effect over the span.

Question 2

A steel beam with a specified yield strength of 50 ksi is tested for flexural strength. Determine its nominal strength using appropriate section modulus and reduction factors.

💡 Hint: Check if your section is compact or partially compact.
