Is a W-shape with the following details considered slender according to AISC 360 Table B4.1a?bf/2tf = 10h/tw = 34Fy = 48 ksi

Determine the effective length of the following column where L = 20 ft. One end is fixed. The other end is free to rotate and translate.

Determine the Euler bucking stress for a structural steel column that has a length of 8 feet and a radius of gyration of 3.4 inches.

A W12 x 50 column is made from ASTM A572 Gr. 60 steel and has a length of 32 ft. The column is only supported at its ends. Both ends are fixed. Determine the nominal compressive strength, Pn, for this column. Assume the shape is nonslender.

Select the lightest HP16 column with an effective length of 15 feet that can support a dead load of 310 kips and a live load of 930 kips. Assume Fy = 50 ksi. Use LRFD.
