A 15-foot long column is pinned at the bottom and fixed against rotation but free to translate at the top. It must support a service dead load of 100 kips and a service live load of 100 kips. Select the lightest W12 of A992 steel. Use a trial-and-error procedure in which a value is estimated, the design stresses determined from AISC Table 4-22, required areas calculated and trial sections selected–and checked and revised if necessary. a. Use LRFD. b. Use ASD.
