This document provides details for Assignment 3 on a steel structure beam column element. It describes a steel column fixed from rotation at its base and laterally braced along one axis but free to rotate along another at its top, and which can also deflect on another plane. Students are asked to determine the maximum design strength for this column.

Steel column as shown below uses W 840 A36; which is fixed from rotation at base. At top of column, it is laterally braced along x-x axis and free to rotate along y-y axis. Columns can also deflect on y-z plane. Determine the maximum design strength for this column.
