Name: Q.1 select the lightest W12 shape for column AB that support a service dead and live loads Po-150k and P-200k as shown in Figure. The beams and columns are oriented about the major axis and the columns are braced at top and mid-height using pinned end connections for out of plane buckling. ASTM A992 steel is used. Select the suitable answer below: I U B W18.76 8.00 All dimensions in feet 30.00 8091 B P
Consider the structure shown in (Figure 1). Suppose that F = 2500 N. Figure 0.2 m 1500 N 0.2 m 30% 0.2 m B -0.2 m-0.2 m- F Part A Determine the resultant couple moment. Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. Enter positive value if the moment is counterclockwise and negative value if the moment is clockwise.
