CISC 95 Example 002
WIDE FLANGE MEMBER UNDER COMPRESSION & BENDING
EXAMPLE DESCRIPTION
The frame object axial and moment strengths are tested in this example.
In this example a continuous column is subjected factored loads and moments Cf
= 2000 kN; Mfx-top= 200 kN-m; Mfx-bottom= 300 kN-m. This example was tested
using theCSA S16-01 (CISC 95) steel frame design code. The design capacities
are compared with Handbook of Steel construction (6
th
Edition) results.
