Determine the limiting laterally unbraced length for the limit state of yielding, Lp, for a W16x36 with a simple span of 12 ft if lateral bracing for the compression flanges is provided at the ends only. Use Fy = 60 ksi.

Determine the nominal flexural strength, Mn, of a W8x31 for a simple span of 20 ft with continuous lateral support. Use Fy = 75 ksi and Cb = 1.0.

The policy of “containment” can best be described as

Determine the limiting laterally unbraced length for the limit state of inelastic lateral-torsional buckling, Lr, for a W16x36 with a simple span of 22 ft if lateral bracing for the compression flanges is provided at the ends only. Use Fy = 45 ksi.
