A W21 × 101 is used as a compression member with one end fixed and the other end free. The length is 9m. Fy = 345 MPa. 1. What are the slenderness limits for the W-section?2. What is the nominal compressive strength?
A W18x97 with Fy = 415 MPa is used as a compression member. The length is 4 m. The radius of gyration for the x- and y-axis are 199 mm and 67.3 mm.  3.1 Compute critical slenderness ratio if Kx = 2.2 and Ky = 1.0 3.2 What is the value of Fe 3.3 What is the nominal compressive strength of the column if its gross section area is 18 400 mm2?
Problem 1.A compression member is 30 feet long. It is made up of ASTM A500 Grade B (Fy= 46 ksi and Fu = 58 ksi) rectangular HSS 12x8x3/16. Assume k-value equals to 1.0 and  Q= 1.0 . If the member carries an axial load composed of 26 kips dead load and 77 kips live load, is the member adequate? Use E=29000 ksi. a. Solve for the gross area.b. Compute for the design strength against squash load.c. Solve for the moment of inertia and radius of gyration for both axes. (X-X and Y-Y)d. Compute for the design strength against global buckling.e. Solve for kL/rfor both axes.(X-X and Y-Y)f. Solve for Fcr.g. Solve for design strength against local buckling.Check first if Local Buckling is applicable.h. Compute for the ultimate load to be carried by the member. Use LRFDLoad Combination.i. Does this member have enough strength? Why or why not?
