A cantilever beam AB is loaded by a uniform load q and a concentrated load P, as shown in the figure.

(a) Select the most economical steel C shape from Table F-3(a) in Appendix F; use q 5 20 lb/ft and P = 300 lb (assume allowable normal stress is s a 518 ksi).

(b) Select the most economical steel S shape from Table F-2(a) in Appendix F; use q 5 45 lb/ft and P = 2000 lb (assume allowable normal stress is
s a =. 20 ksi).

(c) Select the most economical steel W shape. Table F-1(a) in Appendix F; use q = 45 lb/ft and P = 2000 lb (assume allowable normal stress is s a = 20 ksi). However, assume that the design requires that the W shape must be used in weak axis bending, i.e., it must bend about the 2–2 (or y) axis of the cross section.
