(15 points) A single-story moment frame is shown below. Determine if the W12x50 column is
adequate for combined flexure and axial compression. Use the direct analysis method. Use the
approximate method of second-order analysis in AISC 360 Appendix 8.
Selected answers: Pnt =29 k, Mnt =39 k-ft, Plt =25 k, Mlt =375 k-ft. First order story drift (including shear deformation and using 0.8E) is 6.17 inches under the 50 k wind load.
