Deflection:
• Deflection is a serviceability limit state, not
a strength limit state that could affect the
safety of the structure. Therefore, service
loads (not factored Loads) should be used in
computing deflection.

buckling).

Using LRFD Table 3-2 (selection by Zx),
p. 3-17, and the φMpx column,
Look at the boldface sections, since they
represent the lightest sections in their group,
until we find: W21X48 f.
Note that W21X48 f is not a compact section
for (Fy=50 ksi), This means that local buckling
controls the strength of the member and causes
it to be less than Mp.
Instead, choose the next lightest section (in the
same block), and that is: W18X50. whose
strength φMpx is:

Select the lightest W section of A572 Grade 65

Solution
From AISC-LRFD
page 2-8, the
governing factored
loading is:
qu = 1.2D + 1.6L
qu = 1.2D + 1.6L
=1.2(0.8)+1.6(1.4)
= 3.2 kips/ft
The AISC LRFD Tables 3-2 do not list φMpx for
Fy = 65 ksi, so we must proceed with manual
calculations as follows:
Assume that the section is compact (no local
buckling).

Example 3
For the same simply supported beam of example
1, the compression flange can be laterally braced
only at the supports and mid span; Lb = 15 ft.

Since the beam is laterally unsupported, the
strength equations requires the use of the Cb
factor.
