2 Example 11.2 Slenderness Effects for Columns in a Sway Frame Design columns C1 and C2 in the first story of the 12-story office building shown below. The clear height of the first story is 13 ft-4 in., and is 10 ft-4 in. for all of the other stories. Assume that the lateral load effects on the building are caused by wind, and that the dead loads are the only sustained loads. Other pertinent design data for the building are as follows: Material properties: Concrete: 6000 psi for columns in the bottom two stories (w c 150 pcf) 4000 psi elsewhere (w c 150 pcf) Reinforcement: f y 60 ksi Beams: in.
