The steel beam shown is constructed using a W460 x 74 profile. It must support the distributed load w = 30 kN/m, and the three point loads shown in Figure 1. Requested: a) Check if the beam works safely under stresses if it is known that the allowable stress of the steel is o= 210 MPa. Do not consider the self weight of the beam. A b) Calculate the deflection that occurs at the free ends of the beam (points A and D). Consider E = 200GPa.
