1.An HSS 5 × 2. × . braced column is supported, as shown in Figure P10.1. Determine the controlling (higher) slenderness ratio. 2. A single-story, single-bay frame has the relative I values shown in Figure P10.2. Determine the effective length of the columns along the x axis. Sway is permitted in x direction. 3. The frame of Figure P10.3 is braced and bends about the x axis. All beams are W18 × 35, and all columns are W10 × 54. Determine the effective length factors for AB and BC.
