Transcribed Image Text:**Assignment 3.2 - Find the column capacity \( P_u \)?**
*W 14 x 90 of A992 Steel Section*
### Diagram Explanation:
The image contains a diagram of a steel column section with two views: one representing the strong axis and the other the weak axis.
- **Strong Axis:**
- The column is shown vertically with an arrow labeled \( P_u = ? \) pointing downwards, indicating the unknown column capacity to be found.
- The height of the column along the strong axis is labeled as 24 ft.
- The dimensions at the base are \( l_x = 24 \, \text{ft} \) and \( l_y = 12 \, \text{ft} \).
- **Weak Axis:**
- Similarly, this view shows the column with another arrow labeled \( P_u = ? \).
- The height of the column from the ground to the top is divided into two sections: a lower section of 12 ft and an upper section of 12 ft, totaling 24 ft.
The assignment task is to calculate or determine the column capacity \( P_u \) for each axis.
