Q$2)$ Column Design $-$ CISC Design Tables

Find: Determine the economical W$-$Shape Column and show the stress ratio.

Given: The column carries one end of a $6m$ long, simply supported steel beam

The steel beam has a $8\mathrm{.}0m$ tributary width

The steel beam loads are $D=12\mathrm{.}75$kPa,$L=8\mathrm{.}0$kPa

Assume no eccentricity $)=(0$

Assume commonly available steel $($fy $=345$MPa $)$

The column is $8\mathrm{.}8m$ tall

Solution:
