W8X? Steel Beam Design | LRFD vs ASD Load Analysis (Step-by-Step)

In this video, we will design a *W8X? steel beam section* using *both LRFD (Load and Resistance Factor Design)* and *ASD (Allowable Strength Design)* methods. You’ll learn how to select the correct W-shape section, check bending strength, shear strength, and deflection according to *AISC Steel Manual* standards.
✅ Topics Covered:
Understanding W-shape steel sections (W8x??)
Load calculation and factored/unfactored loads
Design comparison between LRFD and ASD
Step-by-step beam selection
Example problem using AISC Manual
📘 Useful for:
Civil Engineers | Structural Engineers | Engineering Students | PE Exam Preparation
