The W shape beam was used as a floor beam. Some longitudinal beam loaded concentrated force on it. Because there are pins and some supports underneath of the floor beam, so the flexure capacity is enough except shear capacity. Could you give more comments? Thanks!

I have a steel I-beam whose shear capacity is not enough. I can only think of making a “sandwich” web by welding two plate each side. Any good advice?

Thanks!
