Situation 2. A W14x90 of A992 steel is used as a pin-connected column. The 30ft long column is braced at mid-height with respect to its weak axis. Determine the axial compressive load. (ASD & LRFD) 30ft Properties of W14x90: 15ft 15ft A = 26.5 in.² d = 14.0 in. by = 14.5 in. t₁ = 0.710 in. tw = 0.440 in. Tx = 6.14 in. ry = 3.70 in. by/2t, = 10.2 h/tw = 25.9

Verify the value of Zx for a W1850 that is tabulated in the dimensions and properties tables in Part 1 of the Manual.

A column in a building is subjected to the following load effects: 9 kips compression from dead load 5 kips compression from roof live load 6 kips compression from snow 7 kips compression from 3 inches of rain accumulated on the roof 8 kips compression from wind a. If lead and resistance factor design is used, determine the factored load (required strength) to be used in the design of the column. Which AISC load combination controls? b. What is the required design strength of the Column? c. What is the required nominal strength of the column for a resistance factor of 0.90? d. If allowable strength design is used, determine the required load capacity (required strength) to be used in the design of the column. Which AISC load combination controls? e. What is the required nominal strength of the column for a safety factor of 1.67?

The member shown in Figure P6.6-4 is part of a braced frame. The load and moments are computed from service loads, and bending is about the x axis (the end shears are not shown). The frame analysis was performed consistent with the effective length method, so the flexural rigidity. EI, was unreduced. Use Kx=0.9. The load and moments are 30 dead load and 70 live load. Determine whether this member satisfies the appropriate AISC interaction equation. a. Use LRFD. b. Use ASD.

A beam must be designed to the following specifications: Span length = 35 ft Beam spacing = 10 ft 2-in. deck with 3 in. of lightweight concrete fill (wc=115 pcf) for a total depth of t=5 in. Total weight of deck and slab = 51 psf Construction load = 20 psf Partition load = 20 psf Miscellaneous dead load = 10 psf Live load = 80 psf Fy=50 ksi, fc=4 ksi Assume continuous lateral support and use LRFD. a. Design a noncomposite beam. Compute the total deflection (there is no limit to be checked). b. Design a composite beam and specify the size and number of stud anchors required. Assume one stud at each beam location. Compute the maximum total deflection as follows: 1. Use the transformed section. 2. Use the lower-bound moment of inertia.
