Question
The cross sectional dimensions of a structural steel column, which serves as
the central support of a tall loading platform, are as shown in Figure 3. The
column is rigidly fixed at its foundation and the top end is free. The Young's
modulus for steel is 210 GNm² and the yield stress 320 MNm-².
