Beam-Columns:
- it is generally accepted that axially loaded compression members are nonexistent in actual
structures and that all compression members are subjected to some amount of bending moment. The
bending moment may be induced by an eccentric load or through frame actions. Since columns may
be subjected to varying amounts of axial load and bending moment, two extremes may exist. If the
bending moment approaches zero, as a limit, the member is theoretically subjected to an axial load
only. The analysis and design of such member are the same as for an axially loaded member. If the
eccentricity becomes large (and the axial load approaches zero), the member is theoretically
subjected to a bending moment only, and the analysis and design are the same as for a beam. A
structural member that is subjected to varying amounts of both axial compression and bending
moment is commonly termed a beam-column.
The actual stresses induced in a beam-column by axial compression and bending moment
are not directly additive since the combination of the two generates a secondary moment that cannot
be ignored. This secondary moment results from a lateral deflection initially caused by the bending
moment. The product of this deflection and the axial load, sometimes called the P-delta moment,
causes further bending and creates secondary stresses that normally are not considered in individual
beam or column analysis and design.
Neglecting the secondary moment, an appropriate expression for the combined stresses for a
short beam-column subjected to an axial load and bending moment with respect to one axis only
may be expressed as:

for compression members in frames braced against joint translation in the plane of loading
and subjected to transverse loading between their supports, the value may be determined by
rational analysis. However, in lieu of such analysis, the following values may be used;
EX. Select a W14 shape to support the loads and moments shown in the figure. There is no bracing in
the plane of loading and the column has a sidesway but no transverse load. In the plane of loading, k x
= 2.0 and in the perpendicular plane where there is bracing, k y = 0.80. Use A36 steel.
