A column in a building is subjected to a compressive load from the following sources: 10 kips from dead load 6 kips from roof live load 7 kips from snow 9 kips from wind 8 kips from 4 inches of rain accumulated on the roof a.If allowable strength design is used, determine the required load capacity (required strength) to be used in the design of the column. Which AISC load combination controls? b.What is the required nominal strength of the column for a safety factor Ω of 1.67?
