Question

A W 360 x 44 of A992 steel column (Fy =
345 MPa) having a length of 4m is fixed at both ends. Compute the effective width, be, of the slender web.
Compute the value of reduction factor, Q, due to slender elements
in compression members.
Compute the nominal compressive strength of the W-section.
Properties of W 360 x 44
Ag = 5710 mm2
d = 351 mm
bf = 171 mm
tf = 9.78 mm tw = 6.86 mm
kdes = 19.9 mm
k1 = 19.1 mm
rx = 146 mm
ry = 37.8 mm
