The document summarizes the design of a UC section for use as a column in the Marymount Centre chapel building. Key details of the UC section are provided, including dimensions, material properties, and calculations of section properties. Analysis shows the section is classified as semi-compact in both the flange and web. Effective length calculations for different end conditions are presented. The compressive resistance of the section is then calculated along the two axes and found to exceed the required axial load of 65 kN, indicating the section is adequate for the application.
