Question

A column with length $10\text{ m}$ that is fixed in both ends. The column is made of an I-beam with flange dimensions $8\text{m} \times 2\text{m}$ and web of $2\text{m}$ thickness and $7\text{ m}$ length. The Modulus of Elasticity for aluminum is $60\text{ GPa}$.

a) Find the Euler Load for this Column.

b) If the FS is $3$, what is the maximum allowable load for this column?
