- Question 4: A W12 x 65 of A572 Grade 60 steel is used as a compression member. It is 26 feet long, pinned at each end, and has additional support in the weak direction at a point 12 feet from the top. Can this member resist a service dead load of 180 kips and a service live load of 320 kips? a. Use LRFD. b. Use ASD.arrow_forwardA W14X120 is used as a tension member in atruss. The flanges of the member are connected to a gusset plate by ¾ inch boltas shown below. Use A36 steel with Fy=36 ksi and Fu=58 ksi Determine the Yielding Capacity of the section based on LRFD (kips) Determine the Tensile Rupture capacity of the section based on LRFD Determine the Demand to Governing Capacity Ratio (based on yielding and rupture only) if the Demand load carried by the section are DL=200 kips LL=400 kips use LRFDarrow_forwardSteel Designa. Say a W12x45 is not safe against rupture, what other design considerations should be explored to increase its capacity and thereby be safe for rupture.b. Say you are to design a tension member using a C-section and found out that no C-section is safe against yielding and rupture. As a designer, what would be your approach to this? Ans. is built up section, please do explain why build up section.arrow_forward
