Questions and Answers

What is the primary factor that should be considered when selecting a steel section?

  • The depth of the steel section
  • The weight of the steel section
  • The cost per pound of the steel section
  • The plastic modulus of the steel section (correct)

How are the steel sections arranged in the table?

  • In random order
  • In groups based on plastic modulus ranges (correct)
  • In order of increasing plastic modulus
  • In order of decreasing weight

What is the general principle for selecting the steel section?

  • Select the section with the highest plastic modulus
  • Select the section with the lowest cost per pound
  • Select the section with the lowest weight (correct)
  • Select the section with the greatest depth

When would a shallower but heavier section be selected instead of a deeper section?
