Problem 6.2.C (from text) Given the following wood columns: Nominal Size: 8 x 8, Species: Douglas fir-larch, Grade: No 2., and unbraced length = 18 ft. a) Use the tables in Chapter 5 to determine the allowable compression parallel to grain (Fc) and minimum modulus of elasticity (Emin). b) Compute the Euler buckling stress (FCE). Assume Emin-E'min. c) Compute the column stability factor (Cp). This can be computed manually or using the FCE charts provided in Figure 6.2. Either way required computing d) Compute the allowable axial load (P)
