A hollow circular column of steel (E = 30,000 ksi) is subjected to a compressive load P. The column has length L = 8.0 ft and outside diameter d = 8 in. The load P = 110 kips. (a) If the allowable compressive stress is 8.1 ksi, what is the required inside diameter (inches)? (b) If the allowable shortening of the column is 0.025 in., what is the required inside diameter (inches)?

Question
A hollow circular column of steel (E = 30,000 ksi) is subjected to a compressive load P.
The column has length L = 8.0 ft and outside diameter d = 8 in. The load P = 110 kips.
(a) If the allowable compressive stress is 8.1 ksi, what is the required in side diameter
(inches)?
(b) If the allowable shortening of the column is 0.025 in., what is the required in side
diameter (inches)?
