A simply supported beam with dimensions of b = 14 in., h = 30 in., d = 27.5 in., and L = 17 ft supports a uniform service (unfactored) dead load of 1.5375 kips/ft including its own self weight plus a uniform service (unfactored) live load of 0.8 kips/ft. The concrete is normal-weight concrete. The beam is reinforced with 4 No. 5 bars. The concrete strength is 2,800 psi, and the yield strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. Determine the maximum applied bending moment due to the combined service loads (dead plus live), Ma.
