The A-36 steel column is encased in high-strength concrete as shown. If an axial force of 60 kip is applied to the column, determine the required area (in in2) of the steel so that the force is shared equally between the steel and concrete. Modulus of Elasticity of concrete and steel is 4.2x103 and 29x103 both in ksi. X = 19 in, Y = 12 in. The computed answer is 0.00546. Show solution pls. Thank you. 

The A-36 steel column is encased in high-strength concrete as shown. If an axial force of 60 kip is applied to the column, determine the required area (in in2) of the steel so that the force is shared equally between the steel and concrete.
Modulus of Elasticity of concrete and steel is 4.2x103 and 29x103 both in ksi.
X = 19 in, Y = 12 in
NOTE: Input the MAGNITUDE ONLY. Compute and express your final answer in 5 decimal places.
