Calculate the maximum allowable load (in kN) that a nominal 350mm x 350 mm sawn lumber column, 3.5m long, can carry. The applied loading is for 15-year duration and the wood used is visually graded sawn Yakal (E = 9.78 GPa, Fc = 15.8 MPa). The column is effectively held in position at both ends and is fixed for both ends. Use k = 0.65.

A laminated beam is composed of four (4) planks, each of 150 mm x 30 mm, glued together to form a section 150 mm x 150 mm. The allowable shear stress in the glue is 850 kPa, the allowable shear stress in the wood is 1050 KPA, and the allowable flexure stress in the wood is 10 MPa. Determine the maximum uniformly distributed load which can be carried by the beam on a 45 m simple span.
