When asked to find design strength, you only need to use LRFD $($no ASD$).$ Do not consider

block shear. For problems were U is needed, consider all possible values for U $.$

Problem $1$

Select a rectangular cross$-$section to resist service $($unfactored$)$ loads of: D $=10$ kips and L $=30$ kips. The

member is A$36$ steel and $5$ ft long. Assume a connection of one line of $1/2-$inch diameter bolts.
