Read the question carefully and give me right solution according to the question.  A W12x79 of A573 Grade 60 (Fy=415 MPa) steel is used as a compression member. It is 8 m long, pinned at the top fixed at the bottom, and has additional support in the weak direction at mid-height. Properties of the section are as follows: A = 14,500 mm^2 Ix = 258.6 x 10^6 mm^4 Iy = 84.375 x 10^6 mm^4 Calculate the effective slenderness ratio with respect to strong axis buckling using theoretical value of k.
Select a WT section for the compression member shown in Figure . The load is the total service load, with a live-to-dead load ratio of 2.5:1. Use Fy 5 50 ksi. a. Use LRFD. b. Use ASD
How much service live load, in kips per foot, can be supported? The member weight is the only dead load. The axial compressive load consists of a service dead load of 10 kips and a service live load of 20 kips. Do not consider moment amplification. Bending is about the x axis, and the steel is A992.                 a. Use LRFD.                                                                                                           b. Use ASD.
