A tension member must be designed for a service dead load of 18 kips and a service live load of 2 kips.

Required:
a. If load and resistance factor design is used, determine the maximum factored load (required strength) and the controlling AISC load combination.
b. If allowable strength design is used, determine the maximum load (required strength) and the controlling AISC load combination.

Answer:

A) max factored load ( pv = 1.4 * 18 ) = 25.2 kips

B) max load factored load = ( Pa = 18 + 2 ) = 20 kips

Step-by-step explanation:

service dead load = 18 kips

service live load = 2 kips

A) Determine the maximum factored load and controlling AISC load combination

max factored load ( pv = 1.4 * 18 ) = 25.2 kips

DL = 18 kips

LL = 2 kips

B) Determine the max load and controlling AISC load combination

max load factored load = ( Pa = 18 + 2 ) = 20 kips
