Compute the ASD moment amplification factor B1 for the W14x74 made from ASTM A992 steel with L = 13 ft, P = 230 kip, M = 260 kip-ft, and Kx = Ky = 1.0. Bending is about the x axis. The member is part of a braced frame, and the given service loads are 50% dead load and 50% live load. The frame analysis was performed consistent with the effective length method, so the flexural rigidity was unreduced.

Using LRFD, determine the value of the AISC interaction equation for a W16x57 made from ASTM A992. Let L = 16 ft, Kx = Ky = 1.0, and Cb = 1.0. The factored loads are Pnt = 236.8 kip, Mnt = 192.4 kip-ft, The member is part of a braced frame, bending is about the x axis, and the LRFD moment amplification factor has been determined to be B1 = 1.053.

Compute the ASD elastic critical buckling strength, Pe1, for the W14x74 made from ASTM A992 steel with L = 12 ft, P = 240 kip, M = 260 kip-ft, and Kx = Ky = 1.0. Bending is about the x axis. The member is part of a braced frame, and the given service loads are 50% dead load and 50% live load.
