Calculate the maximum allowable load (in KN) of a 5.0m long sawn lumber column can carry. The nominal size is 152.4 x 152.4 mm (6”x6”) and the actual size is 139.7mm x 139.7mm (5.5” x 5.5”). The applied loading is for 15-year duration and the wood used is visually graded sawn square Narra (E= 11.721 GPA, Fc = 10.342 MPa). The column is pinned both ends. Consider adjustments for load duration and moisture condition.

Question

Calculate the maximum allowable load (in KN) of a 5.0m long sawn lumber column can

carry. The nominal size is 152.4 x 152.4 mm (6”x6”) and the actual size is 139.7mm x

139.7mm (5.5” x 5.5”). The applied loading is for 15-year duration and the wood used

is visually graded sawn square Narra (E= 11.721 GPA, Fc = 10.342 MPa). The column is

pinned both ends. Consider adjustments for load duration and moisture condition.
