Question

An A36 (Fy=248MPa, E=200GPa) WF steel column, which is part of a braced frame is loaded with an eccentric load Pu=68.4KN along the plane of the web "e" mm from its centroid. The column is laterally supported with Lb<Lp with compact section with design moment strength of 54KN-m. Using L=4.4m and effective length factor of 0.7. The properties of the WF section are A=3,787mm2, rx=69.77mm, ry=38.61mm. Calculate the maximum distance "e" in millimeters? Express your answer in 1 decimal place.
