a)Find the stress (in psi) in the concrete.
b)Find the stress (in psi) in the steel. 
c)Find the total axial deformation (in inches) of the column.

A 14-in. square concrete post is 6 ft. tall and is reinforced with nine %-in.-
diameter steel bars as shown. A compressive load of 300,000 lb is applied to this
column. The modulus of elasticity is 29,000 ksi for steel and 4,500 ksi for
concrete.
