1. A steel column has an unsupported height of 5.4 m is pin connected at both ends with sidesway is prevented. It carries an total axial load of 530 kN, Mx = 20 kNm, My = 3 kNm at the top and Mx = 13.5 kN, My = 1 kNm at the bottom which causes bending to both major and weak axis (single curvature for both axis). Except for bracings at the top and bottom there is no lateral bracing about either major and minor axis of the column. Fy= 250 MPa. USE ASD and check if the section is adequate
