A W18x60 is used as a beam with an unbraced length of 25 feet. Using Fy = 50 ksi and Cb = 1.0, compute the nominal flexural strength. Use the AISC equations in Chapter F of the Specs to manually solve. Then use the applicable design aids to verify your result. Please also check for compactness. Also, as part of your solution, solve for Lp and Lr

AW10x30, 3.1 m long A36 steel is used as a column with fixed ends to support a service dead load of 267 kN. Calculate the maximum service live load the column can sustan uning LRFD Use theoretical value of k. Write your answer rounded to the nearest whole number in KN Use properties Ag = 5.703 mm2, rx = 111.25 mm,  ry = 34.8 mm.   Use stored value. Asnwer in 5 decimal places.

A steel beam is welded at the left and loaded as shown below. It has a rectangular cross section (height=h, thickness=t) with L=1m, a=0.4 m, h=3 cm, t=1 cm, F=500 N, w=200 N/m. a. Find the factor of safety if the material is 1020 Steel that has been hot rolled (hint: ductile) using an appropriate failure theory b. Find the factor of safety if the beam is the materials is gray cast iron number 50 (hint: brittle) using an appropriate failure theory. а F W
