Example D.4 W-Shape Tension Member Given: Select an & in. W-shape, ASTM A992, to carry a dead load of 30 kips and a live load of 90 kips in tension. The member is 25 ft long, Verify the member strength by both LRED and ASD with the bolted end connection shown, Verify that the member satisfies the recommended slendemess limit 1% 3@300 9 Dia bots in standard holes. we Solution: Caleutate the required tensile sirength TRED ASD (BO Kips) * 1.6(90 ps) 10 Kips +90 Kips 80 kips 20 kips Try a W821 Material Properties: WSx21 ASTM A992 Fy=65 ksi Manual Table 2-3 Geometric Properties: WSx21 d= 6.16 in? p= 827m 1/= 0400 in d=828in, Manus 1.26 in Table 1-1 0.831 in.
