A fully erected timber of rectangular cros- section was compressed due to an axial load resulting to a deviation of as much as 3 mm. If the original height is 5 m, and the load it carries is equivalent to 15 ton force, compute the allowable cross-section if the longer side is twice the short side. Modulus of elasticity of the timber is 10,200 MPa. Use 1 ton to 9806 N as conversion factor. Round up to the nearest whole number and in mm
