Question
**Design of a Column Wooden Section**

**Objective:**  
Design a wooden column section, with a length of 3.5 meters, fixed at both ends.  
The column is subjected to an axial load of 85 kN. The design requires the use of a square section.

**Given Allowable Stress:**  
1. **Compressive Stress Parallel to Grain:** 15 MPa  
2. **Modulus of Elasticity:** 14,000 MPa

**Note:** Use these parameters to ensure the column design supports the specified load safely within the given material constraints.
