Question

Two C310 x 45 channels are used as column. The column is
12 m high, latticed together so they have equal moments of inertia about
the principal axes. Assumed both ends are pinned and proportional limit
is 240 MPa and the modulus of elasticity of steel is 200 GPa.

Compute the distance back to back of channels.
Compute the minimum length of a column having this section.
What safe load will the column carry with a factor of safety 2.5?

Properties of C310 x 45
A = 5690 mm2
Ix = 67.3 x 106 mm4
x = 17 mm
Iy = 2.12 x 106 mm4
