AISC 360 05 Example 002

This document summarizes the verification of the ETABS 2013 structural analysis software for calculating the compression capacity of a built-up wide flange column according to AISC-360-05 specifications. The column geometry, material properties, and applied loads are described. Hand calculations are shown and compared to the ETABS results, with an exact match obtained. The key steps checked include determining section compactness, calculating warping constants and member capacity with slenderness reductions.

BUILT UP WIDE FLANGE MEMBER UNDER COMPRESSION
EXAMPLE DESCRIPTION
A demand capacity ratio is calculated for the built-up, ASTM A572 grade 50,
column shown below. An axial load of 70 kips (D) and 210 kips (L) is applied to
a simply supported column with a height of 15 ft.
