Consider an ASTM A992 W 18×50 beam forspan and uniform dead and live loads as shown in Figure 1. The member is limited to a maximum nominal depth of 18 inches. The live load deflection is limited to L/360. The beam is simply supported and continuously braced. Verify the available flexural strength of the selected beam, based on LRFD and ASD.

A curved frame called Lee's frame is pinned at the end points and loaded by a concentrated force at point A. Determine the deflection ratio at point A in the given load steps. The problem is defined according to The NAFEMS Non-Linear Benchmarks.
A strut with a circular cross-section is supported according to four basic cases of Euler buckling and subjected to pressure force. Determine the critical load.
Using AISC Manual tables, determine the available compressive and flexural strengths and whether the ASTM A992 W14x99 beam has sufficient available strength to support the axial forces and moments shown in Figure 1, obtained from a second-order analysis that includes P-𝛿 effects.

A thin circular ring of a rectangular cross-section is exposed to external pressure. Determine the critical load and corresponding load factor for in-plane buckling.
A column is composed of a concrete section (rectangle 100/200) and a steel section (profile I 200). It is subjected to pressure force. Determine the critical load and corresponding load factor. The theoretical solution is based on the buckling of a simple beam. In this case, two regions have to be taken into account due to different moments of inertia and material properties.
