  • Q10:6. A W12x53 has been selected as a compression member for a single-story building design. The member is made of A992 Steel. The member is 20' long, fixed at the bottom and pinned at the top in both axes. The member is braced against flexure at the midpoint in the minor axis only. The member is braced against torsion in both axes at the midpoint (In other words, flexural unbraced length is greater than or equal to the torsional unbraced length) If the DL= 150 kips, what is the maximum LL that can be applied to the column? Use LRFD and ASCE 7-22 Load Combos. (25 points)See Answer
  • Q11:7. A tension member is subjected to the following unfactored loads: DL = 220 kips and LL = 185 kips. Select the lightest WT7X__ tension member that can carry the load given the below bolt pattern. Steel is A36 grade. The bolt diameter is 7/8-inch. Assume that block shear does not control, so you only need to check yielding of the gross area and rupture on the net area. (HINT: Design will go faster if you find the minimum required gross area of steel, Ag). (25 points) 3 3 3 1.5" 0000 0000See Answer

  • Q19: PART B-STEEL MATERIAL (40 marks) B. You need to use your student ID to get some parameters. No marks for wrong input values. A simply supported steel beam is subjected to a point load, P, at the middle of the span. L/2 L/2 Note, some data is given based on your student ID. a = the last two digits of your student ID. For example, if ID=12345678, use a-78 to get the below information • The whole span of the beam, L (m) = 8 +0.05 x a For example, L = 8 +0.05 × 78 = 11.9 m The point load (P) is the critical load combination, and it provides the lateral restraint for the beam. The loads acting on the beam are: Dead load, G (kN) = 80 +0.1 x a (The self-weight is already included in this dead load calculation) • Live load, Q (kN) = 10 • Upward wind load, W. (kN) = 60 Answer the following questions: 1. Determine the critical shear force and bending moment acting on the beam. (10 marks) 2. Check whether or not the given section in Table 1 satisfies the ultimate limit state for flexure. Knowing that the beam is not fully lateral restrained for bending, and the shear capacity of the beam is adequate. (30 marks) Table 1.
