Analyze and design the beam using Robot within Rivet (strongly recommended) or program of your choice and compare the results to your hand solution (e.g., moment envelop from your computer model vs. moments from part (b).
Civil Engineering Design a rectangular beam continuous over three spans as shown in the accompanying figure. The live load is 2.4 kips/ft, and the superimposed dead load is 1.6 kips/ft in addition to the beam weight. Supports are 16″ wide. Assume fic = 4,000 psi, and f1= 60,000 psi. a) Is ACI simplified method of […]
