Select the lightest W section to serve as an axially loaded column 28 ft long, in a braced frame, with additional lateral support in the weak direction at mid-height. The load to be carried is 65 kips dead load and 150 kips live load. Assume the top and bottom of the column are hinged. a) Use A992 and indicate first and second choices b) Use A572 Grade 60, indicating first and second choices

Using LRFD, select a 30-ft-long W section of A992 steel with a nominal depth of 10 in (a W12) to support a tensile service dead load PD=130kand a tensile service live load PL=110k. In addition, the section is to comply with the slenderness ratio limit from AISC D1 to prevent sag of the member. As shown in the figure below, the member is to have two lines of bolts in each flange for 7/8-in bolts (at least three in a...
