A W8 x 67 column is made from ASTM A36 steel and has a length of 19 ft. The column is only supported at its ends. Both ends are fixed. Determine the nominal compressive strength, Pn, for this column. Assume the shape is nonslender.

A WT5x7.5 beam made from A992 steel would be classified as _______.

Select the lightest HP16 column with an effective length of 15 feet that can support a dead load of 190 kips and a live load of 570 kips. Assume Fy = 50 ksi. Use LRFD.

Select the lightest HP16 column with an effective length of 15 feet that can support a dead load of 270 kips and a live load of 810 kips. Assume Fy = 50 ksi. Use ASD.

A W10 x 77 column is made from ASTM A36 steel and has a length of 34 ft. The column is only supported at its ends. One end is fixed and the other is pinned. Determine the elastic buckling stress, Fe, for this column.

Select the lightest HP16 column with an effective length of 15 feet that can support a dead load of 270 kips and a live load of 810 kips. Assume Fy = 50 ksi. Use LRFD.
