Question
A wooden timber is employed as a column under formwork. The timber is nominally 6x8 inches (actual dimensions 5 ½ x 7 %"). If the allowable axial design stress based on this species and grade of wood is 600 psi what is the maximum load that could be safely applied to a short length of this timber used as a column? (You can ignore slenderness criteria). Maximum axial load (include units).
