Consider the design for a simple support structure of a swing set. The structure consists of two identical columns
on the left and right and a horizontal beam simply supported on top of the two columns. The columns are 2.0 m tall
and the beam is 4 long. Consider the column ends fixed at the bottom and free at the top. The maximum designed
load for the swing set is 2200 N. Design the beam and the column with howllow rectangular pipe sections (properties
listed below) so that the safety factors of the beam and the columns are 2.2 and 1.5, respectively. The steel used for the
structural steel has E = 260 GPa and Sy = 210 MPa.
