Question: Building Site 2 : 1 0 6 W 5 th St Metropolis, Illinois 6 2 9 6 0 . See Figure 1 . Building Code:
Building Site : W th St Metropolis, Illinois See Figure
Building Code: IBC ASCE AISC Steel Construction Manual th Ed
Steel Framed Building. Concrete roof and floor slabs.
Building Use Typical office building
Proposed Lateral LoadResisting System: Steel special concentrically braced frames
Soil Type D
Dead Loads:
Roof Dead Load: psf including the roof equipment but not including the faade
Floor Dead Load: psf including all partitions and equipment but not including the faade
Exterior Faade: pounds per square foot of exterior surface area
Live Loads:
Roof: psf live load
Typical Floors psf live load
Consider Dead, Live, Snow, Wind and Seismic Loads for the design of all elements unless noted
otherwise
Determine the following:
The wind loads acting on the building in both the NS and EW directions
The seismic forces at each level in both the NS and EW directions
Design the roof beam, B
Design the floor beam, B
Design the roof girder, G
Design the floor girder, G
Design the concentric bracing at elevation AA blue location chevron
Check both wind and seismic loads. Design both the typical bracing member and a typical
connection to the beam and a typical connection to the column.
Design the concentric bracing at elevation BB red location the X bracing is connected where the
members intersect assume lateral bracing so L eff L where L is the brace length Check both
wind and seismic loads. Design both a typical bracing member and a typical connection at the
beamcolumn joint.
Design column C
Determine the compression at the base of the column where it bears upon a concrete footing.
Design the column base plate and the connection of the column to the concrete footing below. Use
fc of psi for the concrete footing. Rebar is fy ksi.
Design a typical foundation spread footing under column C Provide a sketchs that shows the
geometry of the concrete footing, the steel reinforcement of the concrete footing and the
connection of the columnbase plate to the footing. Soil bearing pressure is psf CVNG
