Question
A two-story frame, is braced in y axis (Ky-1) and is connected as moment frame for x axis
as shown below. Assuming elastic behavior, and all steel has Fy-50ksi, determine following
for column BF.
a) Kx for column.
b) The governing buckling axis.
c) Failure mode in column (Inelastic or elastic global buckling).
d) Design strength of the column according to LRFD method (Pn).
e) If the column is adequate for the service dead load of 180K and live load of 240K.
Use the kx value obtained in part a and select lightest HSS rectangular to replace
W12x72. Compare the weight of selected section
