Question: 3 5 Select the lightest W 1 2 section to carry an axial compression in addition to biaxial bending, loaded as shown in the figure.

35 Select the lightest W12 section to carry an axial compression in addition to biaxial bending, loaded as shown in the figure. Assume the first-order structural analysis has been performed using factored loads. The results are Pu=375 kips, Mnx=38kips-ft about the x-axis at the top of the column, and Mn=14kips-ft about the y -axis at the top of the column. Use A 572 Gr 50 steel and LRFD.
