Problem 7.23
Given
Member size 8x12 Note that this size is considered a beam-and-stringer but is being used as a column/post. Load axial compression for D and D+L Stress grade and species No. 1 S-P-F(S) Unbraced length lu = 16 ft for strong axis
lu = 8 ft for weak axisAdjustment factors CM = 1
Ct = 1

Ke = 1 (assumed)
Let l = lu (full length not given)
le = Ke l
le1/d1 = Ke lu1 / 11.5 in. (NDS Supplement table 1B) = 192 in. / 11.5 in. = 16.69 (strong)
le2/d2 = Ke lu2 / 7.5 in. (NDS Supplement table 1B) = 96 in. / 7.5 in. = 12.80 (weak)
le1/d1 > le2/d2 (strong axis governs)
FcE = 0.822 E'min / (le/d)2 = 1,298 (strong) or 2,208 (weak) psi
F*c = F'c without CP = 495 (D) or 550 (L) psi
c = 0.8
CP = (1+FcE/F*c)/2c - sqrt{[(1+FcE/F*c) / 2c]2 - (FcE/F*c)/c} = 0.9047 (D, strong), 0.8917 (L, strong), 0.9487 (D, weak), or 0.9422 (L, weak)
(I calculated all four values to prove to myself that the strong axis governs.)NDS Supplement section 3.10
