Question 1 (i) State the general equation for direct stresses on a cross-section of an eccentrically loaded short column such as the one shown in Figure Q1, and state how the positive and negative senses in this equation are determined. (ii) Determine the stresses at the points A and C of the rectangular cross-section of the short column shown in Figure Q1, that is exposed to a tensile load P (out of the plane) of 25 kN applied at the point X. y All units in A X z 60 100 200 X B 300 Figure Q1 - Eccentrically loaded short column
