hollow cast iron column with the cross section shown in the image attached is subjected ti a vertical load of 100kN which acts through the corner A. (i) Calculate the maximum compressive and ensile streeses in the column. (ii) Calculate the minimum vertical load which must be applied at corner B in order for there to be no resultant tensile stress caused by the two loads.
