12. A column of length 18" and a diameter of 0.25" was tested with both ends pinned. The measured critical load was 172 Ibs. If the modulus of elasticity of the material is 29000 ksi, calculate the theoretical value for the critical load. What is the percent error in the critical load measurement? When the same column was tested with both ends fixed, the measured critical load was 510 lbs. What are the theoretical critical load and the percent error here? Use the formula shown below to calculate the % error. % ERROR = (Ptheo-Pactual)/Ptheo

12. A column of length 18" and a diameter of 0.25" was tested with both ends pinned. The measured critical load was 172
Ibs. If the modulus of elasticity of the material is 29000 ksi, calculate the theoretical value for the critical load. What is the
percent error in the critical load measurement? When the same column was tested with both ends fixed, the measured critical
load was 510 lbs. What are the theoretical critical load and the percent error here? Use the formula shown below to calculate
the % error.
% ERROR = ((Ptheo-Pactual)/Ptheo
