Question: Problem # 1 ( 8 Points ) : Design an interior square column 1 8 ' ' 2 0 ' ' for the second story

Problem #1(8 Points): Design an interior square column 18''20'' for the second story of an 8 story office building. The clear height of the first floor is 16ft, and the heiglat of all other foors is 11ft. The building layout is in 24 bays, and the columns are not braced against sidesway. The Toads acting on a first-floor interior column due to gravity and wind are us follows:
Axial dead load =250K
Axial live load =150K
Axial wind load =10K
Dead - load moments Top)30K. ft (Bottom)
Live - load moments =40K*ft(Top)25K.ft(Bottom)
El for beams =360103K* in.
Use f'c=5ksi,fy=60ksi, and the ACI Code requirements. Assume an exterior column load of two-thirds the interior column load, a corner column load of one-third the interior column load.
use load combination 1.2DL+1L+1W
