Problem 2 (25 pts.) A steel column has a total unbraced height of 20 ft and carries an axial LRFD load of 500 kips. The column ends are fixed. Select an economical HSS 8x8 for this column.
Problem 3 (25 pts.) A W10x49 section of A992, Grade 50 steel, is used as a steel column with a total unbraced height of 11 ft. The column ends are both pinned. Determine the axial LRFD and ASD that this column can support.
Select the most economical W12 column 22.5 feet in height to support an unfactored axial dead load of 370 kips using A572 grade 50 steel. Assume that the column is pinned at both the top and base. **Dead load factor is 1.4 for dead load only cases.
Homework Problem Set #2 A W10x22 used as a column under axial compression. Assume that it is unbraced unless specified otherwise. Use A36 steel. For each column length and end conditions given, calculate the design capacity, pePa (25 points) (a) L = 8 ft, pinned ends (b) L-8 ft, fixed ends (c) L = 16 ft, pinned ends (d) L = 16 ft, fixed ends (e) L- 16 ft, pinned ends, braced at the midspan in the weak axis direction.
Select the most economic A992 (Fy=50 ksi) W shape to use as a column for the following conditions. Axial dead load of 75 kips, axial live load of 75 kips, length of the column is 12 ft, with no intermediate bracing, pinned top and bottom 2, 3. Use table 10.6 to answer the following questions about A36 double angle compression struts, pinned at both ends. A double-angle compression member 8 ft long is composed of two A36 4x3x5/16 steel angles....
Problem 2. Design and select an ASTM A992 (Fy" 50 ksi) W-shape column to carry an axial dead load of 140 kips and live lond of 420 kips. The column is 30 feet long, and is pinned top and bottom in both axes. In addition, the column is laterally braced about the y-y axis (local weak/minor axis of the section) and torsionally braced at the midpoint. Limit the column size to a nominal 14 in. shape, that is W14 shape...
2. Design Wide flange column section only of A992 steel to serve as a pinned- end main member column 30 ft long to carry an axial compression loads in a braced structure, based on AISC LRFD method. The dead load is 50 kips A992 13-0" and live load is 70 kips. The member has strong axis direction supported at 17ft height from the bottom of the column. Dead load is 20 kips and live load is 40 kips. Assume the...
Problem 5: Design of Idealized Compression Member A 20-ft long column is pinned at the bottom and fixed against rotation, but free to translate, at the top. It must support a service dead load of 110 kips and a service live load of 110 kips. a) Select the lightest W12 of A992 steel. Use the column load tables b) Select the lightest W18 of A992 steel. Use the trial-and-error process.
