N2  - This Thesis presents a study of the structural design of beam-columns in accordance  with the latest Egyptian steel codes (ASD & LRFD) under the effect of different live  to dead load ratios. Extracted design charts are produced to determine the relation  between different Live to dead load ratios versus different unsupported member  lengths. While focusing on regions where either LRFD or ASD shall give an optimum  designed section based on the different design parameters. Different cross sections,  member spans, steel grade and buckling lengths are introduced. It is shown clearly the  significant effect of different sharing of axial compression force to the applied  moment for the output results. Great influence is also observed for the unsupported  length 2Lu3 and of course the live to dead load ratio. Generally it is concluded that,  ASD" method is more reliable than "LRFD" method for beam-column section with  bigger unbraced length "Lu2, and for higher N ratios, while LRFD method is much  optimum for smaller Lu values, smaller N ratios, smaller cross sections and smaller  L/D ratios
