A 200 mm square structural tubing 8 m long is used as a column with the following properties:
A = 9300 mm2
E = 200 GPa
1= 5.45 x 107 mm4
Fy = 415 MPa
r= 77 mm
What is the maximum height (m) required for the column with respect to the provision's limiting
slenderness ratio for compression members? Assume fixed at the bottom and free end at the
top (K = 2.0).
