A steel pipe column is supported on a circular steel base plate and a concrete pedestal. Column ends are hinged and sideway is prevented. Given: Axial load = 800 KN Column outside diameter = 260 mm Column unsupported length = 3 m Allowable compressive stress = 55 Mpa Allowable bearing stress on the pedestal = 10 Mpa A. If the thickness of the column is 10 mm, calculate the slenderness ratio. B. What is the minimum required thickness of the column based on the allowable compressive stress? C. Find the minimum required diameter of the base plat
