Aisc Asd-01 Example 001

The document describes a verification test of the SAP2000 software by modeling a wide flange beam subjected to bending. The beam properties, loading, and geometry are provided. The test checks the section compactness classification and bending capacity calculation against independent hand calculations. The results show an exact match between SAP2000 and the independent calculations, verifying the software.

WIDE FLANGE MEMBER UNDER BENDING
EXAMPLE DESCRIPTION
The beam below is subjected to a bending moment of 20 kip-ft. The compression
flange is braced at 3.0 ft intervals. The selected member is non-compact due to
flange criteria.
