The National Organization for Women (NOW) campaigned for which of the following? 

Holes should only be placed in a beam web at sections of _______ .

President Harding’s call for a “return to normalcy” meant

Determine the maximum deflection for a W14x61 beam made of A572 Grade 42 steel. Let P = 5,700 lb and L = 20 ft. Ignore the weight of the beam.

Determine the nominal shear strength of a W14x90 of A913 Grade 65 steel.

Determine the magnitude of the largest shear force (consider both positive and negative peaks). Use a = 23 ft, b = 8 ft, and w = 10 kips/ft. The reaction forces for this beam are Ay = 101.10 kips and By = 208.90 kips.

Determine the limiting laterally unbraced length for the limit state of yielding, Lp, for a W16x36 with a simple span of 12 ft if lateral bracing for the compression flanges is provided at the ends only. Use Fy = 60 ksi.

Determine the limiting laterally unbraced length for the limit state of yielding, Lp, for a W16x36 with a simple span of 28 ft if lateral bracing for the compression flanges is provided at the ends only. Use Fy = 40 ksi.
