Compute the ASD moment amplification factor B1 for the W14x74 made from ASTM A992 steel with L = 15 ft, P = 200 kip, M = 230 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 ASD moment amplification factor B1 for the W12x106 made from ASTM A992 steel with L = 15 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 using the requirements for the approximate second-order analysis method meaning that a reduced stiffness was used.

A W14x74 of A992 steel is to be investigated for use as a beam-column in an unbraced frame. The length is 13 feet. First-order analyses of the frame were performed for both the sway and nonsway cases. The factored loads and moments corresponding to one of the load combinations to be investigated are given for this member in the following table. The multiplier to account for P-δ effects was determined to be 1.20, and the multiplier to account for P-Δ effects was determined to be 1.19. Determine the required second-order axial strength, Pr, of the member.Type of analysisPu (kip)Mtop (kip-ft)Mbottom (kip-ft)Nonsway4853028Sway11540110
