1. Compute the design and allowable compressive strength of a 12 meter built-up column composed of a steel plate with an attached channel section on each side. The web of both channel bars are welded to the steel plate, with their local x-axes coinciding with that of the steel plate. The thickness of the plate is 6 mm, with its width equal to the depth of the larger channel section. Assume that the column has fixed ends and is supported about the weaker at middle thirds, and about the stronger axis at mid-height. Assume all steel used are A36 steel.
