(b) A steel strut of height 2 m, and cross-section 50 mm x 24 mm, is subject to an axial compressive load. The strut is supported at both ends as shown in Figure 2. The pin allows rotation about the y-y axis only. The steel used in the manufacture of the strut has an elastic modulus of 205 GPa and a yield stress of 240 MPa. LOAD www

The pin allows rotation about the y-y axis only. (i) (ii) (iii) The steel used in the manufacture of the strut has an elastic modulus of 205 GPa and a yield stress of 240 MPa. 2m A LOAD puyu Ţ A L. LOAD 50 mm IN L. 24 mm ENLARGED SECTION A-A Figure 2: Support conditions and cross-section of steel strut Describe the strut's end fixing conditions about the x-x and y-y axes. Calculate the strut's buckling load according to Euler Formula. Sketch the relationship of the slenderness ratio and buckling stress for the strut about the x-x axis. Critically comment on the suitability of the Euler equation for estimating the maximum compressive load the strut can support.
