A W12X170 column of A36 steel has an unbraced length of 3.6m about the y-axis and 7.2m about the x-axis. Assume that the member is pinned at the top and fixed at the bottom. The bracing about y-axis is also pinned. Determine the allowable compressive strength of the column (kN). Properties of W12X170 • Area - 32,258mm2 • Ix = 145.80mm • Ty = 81.79mm • b = 319.28mm • tt = 39.62mm • h = 242.06mm • tw = 24.38mm
