Net rentable space

A retail complex is being developed with a gross building area of 70,000 sf, of which 5% is a central pedestrian mall, and the efficiency ratio of the building will be 80%. What will be the net rentable area of this complex?
A. 28,000 sf
B. 52,800 sf
C. 53,200 sf
D. 56,000 sf
AnswerC. 53,200 sf (70k x 0.05 = 3,500, 70k - 3,500 = 66,500, 66,500 x 0.80 = 53,200sf

Radius of gyration

For column design, the radius of gyration incorporates area and the moment of inertia. This value represents the resistance of a cross-section to buckling, which in columns happens under a load parallel to its lesser dimension. The slenderness ratio is the ratio of a column's effective length (modified by K-value to account for its end conditions) to its least radius of gyration. For a W12x16 A36 steel column with a least radius of gyration of 0.773, whose ends are both free to rotate but fixed in translation (K=1), what is it's slenderness ratio? Answer Kl/r = (1)(12feet)(12in/ft) / 0.773 = 186.3 ARE 4.0 exam prep: SS
