The rectangular steel frame shown is to support a footbridge in a chemical plant. The ends of the bridge are supported on rollers, so the bridge is permitted to sway (unbraced frame). All members are oriented with their webs in the plane of the frame (or such that bending will occur about the strong axis). All columns are assumed to be adequately braced in the weak direction. All beams are W16x50. Assume t = 1.0 (elastic behavior). Determine the design compressive strength of column FB (W8x48). Use the LRFD Method. 15 ft + 10' *fe W8x48 W16x50 25' © W12x58 30' W8x48 10'

Plane and Space Trusses

In civil engineering, a truss is the most important structure that forms the most fundamental member of any building structure and commercial complexes. Trusses are composed of individual members or links that are interconnected by suitable joints, such as rivets, welds, or bolts, and nuts. In trusses, the interconnection leads to the formation of a series of triangles joined together such that all the triangular members behave as a single rigid body. In a simple truss, three members are connected to form a truss member. In trusses, the force always acts at the joints or the interconnection between the individual members.
