Problem statement 

Calculate the maximum allowable load that a nominal 203.2x
203.2 mm (8"x8") sawn lumber column, 4.0m long, can carry.
The applied loading is for 20-year duration and the wood used
is visually graded sawn Apitong (E = 7.31 GPa, Fc = 9.56 MPa).
The column is both pin at ends. Consider actual size of 7.25"x
7.25" and CD = 1.0.
