    Rami Ksida
    This document presents a verification example to check the compression and bending design of a W14x99 beam according to the AISC Manual. The example checks if the beam has sufficient strength to support given axial and moment loads. It provides the beam properties, load values, and calculations of effective length, available strengths from the AISC Manual tables, and design check equations. The results from RFEM software are also presented and show good agreement with the AISC Manual solutions.

    1006 – Compression and Bending Design According to AISC


    Description
    Using AISC Manual tables, see [1], determine the available compressive and flexural strengths and
    if the ASTM A992 W14x99 beam has sufficient available strength to support the axial forces and
    moments shown in Figure 1, obtained from a second-order analysis that includes P-𝛿 effects. The
    unbraced length is 14.000 ft and the member has pinned ends.

    Remark
    *Note: The torsional constant C is calculated in RFEM using a more conservative approach. This
    results in a slight difference when comparing values. This conservative approach is referred to
    under Eq. H3-5 in [1].
