Design the W14 section column AB of the frame shown. Assume it is unbraced along the x axis and braced in the weak y direction. The loads on the column are dead load D = 200 kips and live load L = 600 kips. First determine the effective length factor K via nomographs. All girders (beams) are W16 × 100.
