Question

The A-36-steel column can be considered pinned at its top and fixed at its base. Also, it is braced at its mid-height along the weak axis. Investigate whether a W250 imes 45 section can safely support the loading shown. Use the interaction formula. The allowable bending stress is $(sigma_b)_{allow} = 100 ext{ MPa}$. (Hints: Use the table of sections and follow the design of columns for structural steel).

Step 1

The column is subjected to two point loads, one of 10 kN at the top and another of 40 kN at the mid-height. The total axial load (P) is the sum of these two loads: P = 10 kN + 40 kN = 50 kN Show more…
