Question
The column is constructed of a steel wide-flange section (W 8 x 28) hav-
ing modulus of elasticity E = 29 x 10³ ksi and proportional limit σpl = 42 ksi.
The total length of the column is L = 25 ft.
Determine the allowable load Pallow using a factor of safety n = 2.5 with
respect to Euler buckling of the column.
