Determine the design compressive strength of a W16 x 67 that is fixed at the bottom...
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.

Problem 2(50 points) The roof of the Edwin A. Stevens building is to be redesigned to accommodate a billboard for Stevens Institute of Technology. The new billboard will weigh 40 kips and be supported equally by two columns located 9 ft from the rear of the building. The beams supporting the new roof will be simply supported as shown. (Note there is a 5 ft overhang at the front of the building). For the grade...
