steel and 4 # 7 bars in tension steel. The material
properties are fc = 4 ksi and fy= 60 ksi.

 Serviceability Load Deflections -
Example
Show in the attached figure is a typical interior span of a floor
beam spanning between the girders at locations A and C. Partition
walls, which may be damaged by large deflections, are to be
erected at this level. The interior beam shown in the attached
figure will support one of these partition walls. The weight of the
wall is included in the uniform dead load provided in the figure.
Assume that 15 % of the distributed dead load is due to a
superimposed dead load, which is applied to the beam after the
partition wall is in place. Also assume that 40 % of the live load
will be sustained for at least 6 months.
Serviceability Load Deflections - Example

fc = 5 ksi
fy = 60 ksi
 Serviceability Load Deflections - Example

Part I
Determine whether the floor beam meets the ACI Code maximum
permissible deflection criteria. (Note: it will be assumed that it is
acceptable to consider the effective moments of inertia at location
A and B when computing the average effective moment of inertia
for the span in this example.)

Part II
Check the ACI Code crack width provisions at midspan of the
beam.
