for sway column, stability analysis should use 0.5% notional load and K=1.0 (compare with AISC 0.42% notional load). But I can't find K=1.0 for sway column in S16. any idea? Thanks.
it's no nomograph for unbraced column in CISC handbook, but appendix F give K for some unbraced columns. I wonder if "effective length" method is allowed to design unbraced column as other code (eg AISC), or had to use P-delta method (not sure where I saw this).
Thanks.
I prepare PE exam and had a question.
a question of footing give 2 resistance factors fc=0.6 and ff=0.8 (see attached). I guess 0.6 is for short-term and 08 is for long term, but I can't find any support in " Canadian Foundation Engineering Manual" 4th.
Could anyone give me a help.
Thanks a lot
