Question: Rework Problem assuming that the simple support is raised 0.6 in. above the level of the fixed end.
Problem: A structural steel W12×30 has a span length of 24 ft. The beam is fixed at one end and simply supported at the other. Both supports are on the same level. The beam is subjected to a uniformly distributed load of 800 lb/ft, which includes its own weight. Draw the shear and moment diagrams and calculate the maximum bending stress. Label the simple support A and the fixed support B.
