Filled Composite Column Design Based on AISC 360-10 & ACI 318-11

INPUT DATA & DESIGN SUMMARY

STEEL SHAPE (Tube or Pipe) & SIZE HSS10X8X1/2 < == Tube
STEEL YIELD STRESS Fy = 46 ksi
CONCRETE STRENGTH fc' = 4 ksi

AXIAL COMPRESSION FORCE Pr = 100 kips, ASD

STRONG AXIS EFFECTIVE LENGTH kLx = 40 ft
WEAK AXIS EFFECTIVE LENGTH kLy = 3 ft

STRONG AXIS BENDING MOMENT Mrx = 15 ft-kips, ASD

STRONG AXIS BENDING UNBRACED LENGTH Lb = 40 ft, (AISC 360-10 F2.2.c)
STRONG DIRECTION SHEAR LOAD, ASD Vstrong = 50 kips

WEAK AXIS BENDING MOMENT Mry = 20 ft-kips, ASD

WEAK DIRECTION SHEAR LOAD, ASD Vweak = 30 kips

THE DESIGN IS ADEQUATE.

ANALYSIS
CHECK FILLED COMPOSITE COLUMN LIMITATIONS (AISC 360-10, I2.2a)
Asteel / Atotal = 0.20 > 1.0% [Satisfactory]
Where Asteel = 15.3 in2
Atotal = 78.3 in2
b/t= 16.00 < 2.26 (E / Fy)0.5 = 56.75
[Satisfactory]
D/t= N/A 0.15 E / Fy = 94.57
Where b= 8.0 in
D= N/A E= 29000 ksi
t= 0.5 in

CHECK COMPRESSION CAPACITY (AISC 360-10, I2.2b)

Pc = P n / c = 142.77 kips > Pr [Satisfactory]
Where c = 2.0 Pn = 285.54254 kips
C2 = 0.85 P0 = 918 kips
C3 = 0.90 Pe = 325.59012 kips

CHECK COMBINED COMPRESSION AND BENDING CAPACITY (AISC 360-10 I1.1b & I4, and ACI 318-11 Chapter 9 & 10)

CHECK SHEAR CAPACITY (AISC 360-10, I2.2d & G2)

Vn,strong / v = 184.0 / 1.67 = 110.2 kips > Vstrong = 50.0 kips [Satisfactory]

Vn,weak / v = 147.2 / 1.67 = 88.1 kips > Vweak = 30.0 kips [Satisfactory]
