Mlt represents the maximum moment assuming that no sidesway occurs.

Using ASD, determine whether the following member satisfies the appropriate AISC interaction equation. Do not consider moment amplification. The loads are 50% dead and 50% live load. Bending is about the x-axis.Given:    W14x193, A992    660 kip axial compression    600 ft-kip bending moment    L = 19 ft    pin-pin connected    laterally braced at ends    Kx = Ky = 1

Compute the value of Cm for a beam-column in single-curvature bending with a moment of 160 kip-ft on one end and a moment of 400 kip-ft on the other end.

Compute the ASD elastic critical buckling strength, Pe1, for the W8x58 made from ASTM A992 steel with L = 13 ft, P = 250 kip, M = 220 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 30% dead load and 70% live load. The frame analysis was performed consistent with the effective length method, so the flexural rigidity was unreduced.

Compute the value of Cm for a beam-column with a moment of 110 kip-ft at the top and a moment of 540 kip-ft at the bottom.

Compute the LRFD elastic critical buckling strength, Pe1, for the W16x57 made from ASTM A992 steel with L = 15 ft, P = 290 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 30% dead load and 70% live load. The frame analysis was performed consistent with the effective length method, so the flexural rigidity was unreduced.

Determine Cb for the member if the moments at the top and bottom are 140 ft-kip and 390 ft-kip, respectively.

Compute the value of Cm for a beam-column in reverse-curvature bending with a moment of 160 kip-ft on one end and a moment of 510 kip-ft on the other end.

Compute the ASD moment amplification factor B1 for the W8x58 made from ASTM A992 steel with L = 14 ft, P = 230 kip, M = 210 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 40% dead load and 60% live load. The frame analysis was performed using the requirements for the approximate second-order analysis method meaning that a reduced stiffness was used.

Determine Cb for the member if the moments at the top and bottom are 170 ft-kip and 470 ft-kip, respectively.
