Question
The column is used to support the floor which exerts a force of 3000 lb on the top of the column. The effect of soil pressure along its side is distributed as shown. Take that w1 = 100 lb/ft , w2 = 240 lb/ft.
Replace this loading by an equivalent resultant force.
Determine the angle θ of FR (counterclockwise from the negative x axis).
Specify where FR acts along the column, measured from its base A.
