Select the lightest pair of C9 channels to support the loads PD = 50 k and PL = 90 k. The member is to be 20 ft long with both ends pinned and is to be arranged as shown in the accompanying illustration. Use A36 steel and design single lacing and end tie plates, assuming that 3/4 -in diameter bolts are to be used for connections. Assume that the bolts are located 1 1/4 in from the back of channels. Solve by LRFD and
