Column ABC has a uniform rectangular cross section with b = 12 mm and d = 22 mm. The midpoint C of the column is braced so that it cannot move in the x-direction and carries a centric load P of magnitude 3.7 kN. Knowing that a factor of safety of 3.3 is required, determine the largest allowable length L. Use E = 200 GPa.

A solid brass [E = 109 GPa] axial member is loaded and supported as shown. Segments (1) and (2) each have a diameter of 27 mm and segment (3) has a diameter of 13 mm. Assume L1 = 1.8 m, L2 = 1.0 m, L3 = 1.7 m, R = 38 kN, Q = 14 kN, and P = 24 kN. Determine:(a) Determine the axial force in section (2) in kN. (b) Determine the deflection of joint D (positive if downward) with respect to the fixed support at A. (c) Determine the maximum normal stress in the entire axial member. Give answer in MPa.
Determine the design compressive strength (kips) of a A36 steel column, W 10 X 33 with a total length of 20 feet (both pin-end connection). Use K = 1.0 and E = 29,000 ksi, Fy = 50 ksi. No need to check the local stability of the column. W10x33 ... A = 9.71 d = 9.730 tw = 0.290 bf = 7.960 tf = 0.435 rx = 4.190 ry = 1.940
