    1003 – AISC E.1A - W-Shape Column Design with Pinned Ends

    Description
    An ASTM A992 14×132 W-shape column is loaded with the axial compression forces given. The
    column is pinned top and bottom in both axes. Determine whether the column is adequate to
    support the loading shown in Figure 1 based on LRFD and ASD, see [1].

    Taking into account self-weight, determine the available strength in axial compression of the
    column according to [1].

    AISC Solution
    From ASCE/SEI 7, Chapter 2, the required compressive strength is

    LRFD ASD

    Pu = 1.2 ⋅ 140 + 1.6 ⋅ 420 = 840.000 kips Pa = 140 + 420 = 560.000 kips

    From AISC Specification Commentary Table C-A-7.1, for a pinned-pinned condition

    Kx = Ky = 1

    Therefore, the effective length is

    Lc = Kx Lx = Ky Ly = 1 ⋅ 30.000 = 30.000 ft (1003 – 1)

    Because the unbraced length is the same in both the x–x and y–y directions and rx exceeds ry for
    all W-shapes, y–y axis bucking will govern.

    Enter AISC Manual Table 4-1a with an effective length Lc = 30.000 ft, and proceed across the
    table until reaching the least weight shape with an available strength that equals or exceeds the
    required strength.

    From AISC Manual Table 4-1a, the available strength for a y–y axis effective length of 30.000 ft is

    LRFD ASD

    𝜙c Pn = 893.000 > 840.000 kips Pn /𝛺c = 594.000 > 560.000 kips
