Determine the number of a glulam column 3.0 m in length that support an axial load of 120 kN. The column is to be built with 35mm thick and 200mm wide laminations of Yakal lumber (E = 9.78 GPa, Fc = 15.8 MPa). Assume a normal load duration, wet service condition and fixed-end connection with lateral support at both ends.
