The simple portico in the figure consists of a rigid lintel of length L supported by two cylindrical pillars of equal length and material. A triangular distributed load of maximum value q_0 is imposed on the lintel. Calculate the ratio between the cross sections of the columns so that buckling starts in both at the same time. Ignore the shortening of the pillars
