Question

An axially loaded column W360 x134 has
its weak axis braced at the third points.
The overall length of the column 8 m. Use
A 572 grade 50 Fy=345 MPa. The column
is pinned connected at both ends.
Properties: rx = 155 mm, ry = 95 mm,
A = 17,105 mm2

Determine the slenderness ratio with
respect to y-axis.

Determine the slenderness ratio with
respect to x-axis.

Determine the critical slenderness
ratio.

What is the nominal compressive
strength of the steel column?
