(40 points) Select the lightest W10 section of A992 steel to support a tensile service dead load of PD=120k and
a tensile service earthquake load PE=160k. The member is 18 feet long, and has two lines of holes in each
flange for 34-inch diameter bolts (at least three bolts in a line at 3 inches on center). Consider the necessary load
combinations for both LRFD and ASD. Neglect the block shear strength for this problem. Make sure you include
