A W14 x 90 column is made from ASTM A588 steel and has a length of 18 ft. One end is pinned. The other end is fixed against rotation but free to translate. Determine the effective slenderness ratio.

A W10 x 77 column is made from ASTM A572 Gr. 60 steel and has a length of 31 ft. The column is only supported at its ends. Both ends are fixed. Determine the allowable strength, Pn/Ωc, for this column. Assume the shape is nonslender.

A W16 x 50 column is made from ASTM A36 steel and has a length of 38 ft. The column is only supported at its ends. Both ends are pinned. Determine the critical stress, Fcr, for this column, which is also called nominal stress, Fn, in AISC 360-22.
