Ix = 1530 in
CHECK FOR SERVICEABILITY
Required Moment of Inertia, I x for Live-Load Deflection Criterion
Δmax = L/360 for D + L

Ms = n/a ft-kip
Mb = n/a ft-kip

Required Ix = ML2/23.125EΔmax 263.23 in
Enter AISC Table 3-3:

W 18 x 86 AISC Manual Table 1-1

beam weight wb = 86 lb/ft Zx = 186 in

A= 25.3 in Iy = 175 in
d= 18.4 in ry = 2.63 in
tw = 0.48 in rts = 3.05 in
bf = 11.1 in ho = 17.6 in

Sx = 166 in
Is flange compact?
λ = bf / 2*tf 7.21 check AISC Manual Table 1-1
λpf = 0.38*sqrt(E/Fy) 9.15 > λ OK AISC Manual Table B4.1
Is web compact?
λ = h/tw 33.5 check AISC Manual Table 1-1
λp = 3.76*sqrt(E/Fy) 90.55 > λ OK AISC Manual Table B4.1
Limit State:
YIELDING AND LATERAL TORSIONAL BUCKLING (AISC Manual F2) AISC Table User Note F1.1
1. Yielding
Mn = M p = Zx*Fy = 775.00 > 513 ft-kip AISC Manual Eq F2-1
OK
2. Lateral Torsional Buckling
Lb = 15.16 ft
Lp = 1.76*ry*sqrt(E/Fy) 9.29 < Lb check AISC Eq F2-5/Table 3-2
Lr = 1.95*rts*(E/0.7Fy)*sqrt(Jc/Sxho)*sqrt{1+ 28.5 > Lb check AISC Eq F2-6/Table 3-2
sqrt(1+6.76*[(0.7*Fy*Sx*ho)/(E*Jc)]^2)}
Therefore: Lp < Lb < Lr
(a) When Lp > Lb AISC Manual F2.2
the limits of lateral torsional buckling does not apply
(b) When Lp < Lb < Lr ←

Mn = Cb*[Mp - (Mp-0.7FySx)((Lb-Lp)/(Lr-Lp))] ≤ Mp AISC Manual Eq F2-2
or Mn = Cb*[ φbMpx - BF(L≤ Mpx 609.29 > 513.46 ft-kip OK (for W-shapes) AISC pp3-8
Cb = 1.0 conservatively assumed
Mpx = 698.00 ft-kip AISC Manual Table 3-2
BF = 13.6 kip AISC Manual Table 3-2
(c) When Lb > Lr

Mn = Fcr*Sx ≤ Mp 1311.8 > 513.456 ft-kip
2 2 2
Fcr = [(Cb*π *E)/(Lb/rts) ]*sqrt(1+0.078(J*c/Sxho)(Lb/rts) ) = 94.8 ksi OK AISC Manual Eq F2-4
rts = bf / sqrt {12*[1 + [(h*tw)/(6*bf*tf)]} = 3.05 in
Lb / rts = 59.65
OR Enter AISC Table 3-10 with: for most economical secton
Lb = 15.16 ft however,make sure it conforms
Mu = 462.11 ft-kip with the required Ix
THEREFORE FOR FLEXURE, ADOPT W 18 x 86
φMn = 548.36 ft-kip > Mu = 462.11 ft-kip
B. CHECK DESIGN FOR SHEAR

φvVn > Vu
Vu = 40.73 kip
φv = 1.0 Shear reduction factor
Required Vn Vu/φv = 40.73 kip
Check Adequacy of W 18 x 86
Vn = 0.6*Fy*Aw*Cv = 264.96 > Required Vn OK AISC Manual Eq G2-1
2
Aw = d*tw = 8.83 in
h/tw = 33.5 < 2.24*sqrt(E/Fy) AISC Eq G2-2 governs
use Cv = 1.0 refer to table below
(a) For webs of rolled I-shaped members with h/tw ≤ 2.24*sqrt(E/Fy) ←

2.24*sqrt(E/Fy) = 53.95
Cv = 1.0 AISC Manual Eq G2-2
(b) For webs of other doubly symmetric shapes and singly symmetric shapes and chanels, except
round HSS, the web shear coefficient, Cv, is determined as follows:
(i) For h/tw ≤ 1.10*sqrt(kv*E/Fy)
1.10*sqrt(kv*E/Fy) =
Cv = 1.0 AISC Manual Eq G2-3
(ii) For 1.10*sqrt(kv*E/Fy) < h/tw ≤ 1.37*sqrt(kv*E/Fy)
Cv = 1.10*sqrt(kv*E/Fy) / (h*tw) = AISC Manual Eq G2-4
(iii) For h/tw > 1.37*sqrt(kv*E/Fy)
Cv = (1.51*E*kv)/[(h/tw)2*Fy] =
kv is determined as follows: web plate buckling coefficient

(i) For unstiffened webs with h/t w < 260
kv = 5
(ii) For stiffened webs
2
kv = 5 + (5/(a/h) =
or kv = 5 when a/h >3.0
or a/h > [ 260/ (h/t w)]2
SUMMARY: Use: W 18 x 86
FOR FLEXURE φbMn Mu

548.36 > 462.11 ft-kip OK!
FOR SHEAR φvVn Vu

264.96 > 40.73 kip OK!
