1 Fact: the number one cause of structural collapses in the contiguous United States is $1 Bud Light Night 1 LESSON 7: LOAD PATH & TRIBUTARY AREA III ASD VS LRFD September 10, 2018 LESSON OBJECTIVES 1. Describe the differences between the ASD and LRFD methods (e.g., applied loads versus factored loads, allowable strengths versus design strengths). 2. Compute ASD applied forces and moments in a simple-braced building, using tributary areas and widths. 3. Compute LRFD factored forces and moments in a simple-braced building, using tributary areas and widths. 4. Assess the adequacy of members using the ASD or LRFD methods, given the member s nominal resistance. READING: Several pages on the website version of this handout Optional textbook (Segui) Chapter 2 LAB THIS WEEK: Downstairs in the Structures Lab. Proper lab clothing is essential (long pants, shoes that fully cover all skin on the feet, short-sleeve shirt, hair tied back, if applicable). Be prepared to get filthy, as you will learn to MIG weld. Wear clothing that you don t mind ruining. Bring headphones or earbuds, as you will be following video instructions as you conduct computer models, when not welding. LOAD COMBINATION: A load combination is a combination of loads that represents a plausible event. For example, the blizzard of the century is an event that is likely to control the roof beams of a building. Implausible means that it is unlikely that the biggest live load that can ever occur (probably a huge party) will occur on the same day as the biggest blizzard. Consequently, you must understand why the live load is not 100% when the snow is 100%, etc. Every member in the structure may be controlled by a different event. For example, braces are usually controlled by wind or earthquake events, floor beams are usually controlled by live load events, and roof beams are usually controlled by snow events.

Standard Homework Assignment Presentation counts) 0. Study Segui example 2.1. Do not hand in. THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS REFER TO THE BUILDING ON THE NEXT PAGE. 1. Compute the controlling ASD applied load P on the column at grid location B2 at the ground level, then determine if the column is safe, per ASD. 2. Compute the controlling LRFD factored load P u on the column at grid location B2 at the ground level, then determine if the column is safe, per LRFD. 3. Compute the ASD controlling applied moment M on a typical interior 2 ND FLOOR Long Girder. If the nominal moment strength of a W21x93 is M n = 920 kip-ft, determine if this 2 nd Floor Girder is adequate, per ASD. 4. Compute the ASD controlling applied moment M on a typical interior ROOF Long Girder. If the nominal moment strength of a W21x93 is M n = 920 kip-ft, determine if this ROOF Girder is adequate, per ASD. 5. Compute the LRFD controlling Factored moment M u on a typical interior ROOF Long Girder. If the nominal moment strength of a W21x93 is M n = 920 kip-ft, determine if this ROOF Girder is adequate, per LRFD. NOTE THE FACT THAT THE ROOF AND 2 ND FLOOR BEAMS ARE CONTROLLED BY DIFFERENT LOAD EVENTS (LOAD COMBINATIONS). ALSO NOTE THAT LRFD AND ASD GIVE DIFFERENT CONCLUSIONS BECAUSE LRFD FEARS LIVE AND SNOW LOADS BUT ASD DOES NOT
