Question

Calculate the factored load capacity of a double channel section member of A36 steel according to AISC LRFD Specification. The member is 4m long and consists of 2Cs 180x18.2, with flanges turned out with clear gap of 90mm. Assume that there can be as many as two 14mm rivets at any one cross-section (one in each flange). U = 0.80. 

 

Ag= 2x2320= 4640mm2

U=0.80

L= 4m

Clear gap= 90mm

Tf= 9.3

Bf= 55

Tw=8.0
