For Pu = 220 kips and KL = 18’ (same KL for all axes), select the lightest WT15 (A992, Fy = 50 ksi).
WT lightest section to carry the given load is selected using AISC column load tables.

Select the lightest section to carry a compressive load of 200 kips dead load and 625 kips live load. The effective length KL is 25 feet. Use AISC Table 4-1 for (a) Gr. 50 steel, (b) Gr. 65 steel, and (c) Gr. 70 steel
Select the lightest section to carry a compressive load of 200 kips dead load and 625 kips live load. The effective length KL is 25 feet. Use AISC Table 4-1 for (a) Gr. 50 steel, (b)...
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...
Select the lightest section to carry a compressive load of 200 kips dead load and 625 kips live load. The effective length KL is 25 feet. Use AISC Table 4-1 for (a) Gr. 50 steel, (b) Gr. 65 steel, and (c) Gr. 70 steel
22-3: Select the lightest available section for the span and loading shown using A992 steel. The member is assumed to have full lateral bracing. Be sure to check the shear capacity of your selection. You will need to draw shear and moment diagrams. P 85 kips PU 170 kips PU= 110 kips 12 ft 2 ft 12 ft 3 ft A

Select the lightest angular to support a live load LL=60 Kips and a dead load DL= 30 Kips. The angular will be connected to a gusset plate through bolts. Use at least three bolts in one line and 2 in, as the distance between bolts in the load direction. Use A992 Gr 50. The length of the angular is 24 ft. (ignore block shear) Angular >1 Plate
2. Select the lightest W section for a 48 simply-spanning beam for a superimposed DL of 1.0 kips/ft, a superimposed live load of 3.0 kips/ft, and lateral braces every 16'. Fy-60 ksi.

A simply supported beam (B-2) supports a uniformly distributed
load and is braced at five-foot intervals in addition to a
composite slab that is secured to the compression flange of the
beam via shear studs. Assume that the beam is made of ASTM A992
grade with Fy = 50 ksi.
Select the lightest W shape to safely support the following
loads:
DL = 225 psf LL = 150 psf
Beams are spaced at 10' o.c.

Select the lightest designated W14x section (A992) for the load condition given below assuming the member is fully braced against lateral torsional buckling and no holes: Pu = 400 kips (tension) Mux = 300 kip-ft Muy = 0 kip-ft Make use of AISC-15 Table 6-2 but verify selection using more detailed calculations, tables and beam charts.
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....
