3. A column with an effective length of 30 ft is fabricated by connecting two C15 x 40 steel channels (see Appendix B for the cross-sectional properties) with lacing bars as shown in the figure. Use the AISC equations to determine the allowable axial load Pallow that may be supported by the column if d = 12 in. Assume E = 29000 ksi and øy = 36 ksi. Lacing bars C shapes aligned toe-to-toe
