The structure shown below is a cantilever beam with a distributed load kipft applied to
one side and an axial load kip applied on top, as shown in the figure. The structure is
analyzed, and the Moment and Axial diagrams are shown below results for LRFD points
Wx shape
Grade steel ksi,ksi
Length of the beam
a Check the adequacy of the structure for moment and axial LRFD Does the structure
resist to the applied load?
b If the load kip applied at the top of the structure is applied in the opposite direction
tension instead of compression Does the structure still resist to the applied load for this
case? What would be the combined stress for this case?
