A 20320346 UC column is to be used at ground floor in a multi-storey building. The column is to be pinned at the bottom and fixed at the top in both the y-y and z-z planes. The inter-storey height to be considered is 5.75 m . The axial actions to be supported are as follows -
Permanent Action =600kN
Variable Action =300kN
You are required to check
I. the cross sectional resistance in compression
II. buckling resistance of the column for the restraints given
(a) You are required to check buckling resistance of the column allowing for an additional mid-height tie in the z-z plane
Grade S355 steel is to be used.
