An aluminum strut 2.50m long has a rectangular section 60mm by 30mm. A bolt through each end secures the strut so that it acts as a hinged column about an axis perpendicular to the 60 mm dimension and as a fixed ended column about an axis perpendicular to the 30mm dimension. Determine the safe central load using a factor of safety of 2.5 and E = 70 Gpa.
A compression member of 6.5-m effective length is made by welding together two L152 × 102 ×
