Length of Span given Uniform Load Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Length of Span given Uniform Load?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

L = \sqrt{8 \cdot L s \cdot \frac{F}{w b}}

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

L = \sqrt{8 \cdot 5.2m \cdot \frac{400kN}{0.64kN/m}}

Next Step Convert Units

∴

L = \sqrt{8 \cdot 5.2m \cdot \frac{400kN}{640N/m}}

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

L = \sqrt{8 \cdot 5.2 \cdot \frac{400}{640}}

Next Step Evaluate

∴

L = 5.09901951359278m

LAST Step Rounding Answer

∴

L = 5.099m
