Question
![A long, slender structural aluminum [E = 69 GPa] flanged shape is used as a l = 9.2-m-long column. The column is supported in
the x direction at base A and pinned at ends A and C against translation in the y and z directions. Lateral support is provided to
the column so that deflection in the x-z plane is restrained at mid-height B; however, the column is free to deflect in the x-y
plane at B. Assume that b; = 102 mm, d = 122 mm, t; = 8 mm, and t, = 6 mm. Determine the maximum compressive load P the
column can support if a factor of safety of 2.9 is required. In your analysis, consider the possibility that buckling could occur
about either the strong axis (i.e., the z axis) or the weak axis (i.e., the y axis) of the aluminum column.

Incorrect
The allowable load is the maximum compressive load that the column can be designed to carry such that it will have a
given factor of safety.
