A column is subjected to the following loads: D = 115.6 kN, L = 66.7 kN, Lr = 22.2
kN, S = 35.6 kN, R = 22.2 kN, and W = 35.6 kN. All loads are compression except
for the wind load, which can be either tension or compression.
a. If LRFD is used, determine the factored load (required strength) to be used in
the design of the column. Which AISC load combination controls?
b. What is the required design strength of the column?
c. What is the required nominal strength of the column for a resistance factor f of
0.90?
d. If ASD is used, determine the required load capacity (required strength) to be
used in the design of the column. Which AISC load combination controls?
e. What is the required nominal strength of the column for a safety factor of
1.67?
