Use A992 steel and select a W12 shape for axially loaded column as shown below to meet the following requirements: The length is 23 feet, both ends are pinned, and there is bracing in the weak direction at a point 13 feet from the top. The service dead load is 95 kips, and the service live load is 220 kips. Note: Use Table C.8 (Textbook) (Ans. W12 x 53) Answer is given. Please show the complete process of solving this and use semi-neat handwritten Thank you.

Answer is given. Please show the complete process of solving this and use semi-neat handwritten Thank you.
Given:-
Steel grade used = A992
The length of the member = 23 ft
Both ends are pinned
The bracing is provided in the weak direction at a point of 13 ft from the top
The magnitude of the service dead load = 95 kips
The magnitude of the service live load = 220 kips
To determine:-
Select a W12 shape for the axially loaded column
