    structural steel design with CSA S16 (Canadian code)

    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.

    sideway unprevented steel column per Canadian code (CISC)

    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.

    Resistance factor of shallow foundation in Candaian code

    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
