An aluminum strut 2.00m long has a rectangular section 50mm by 30mm. A bolt through each end secures the strut so that it acts as a hinged column about an axis perpendicular to the 50 mm dimension and as a fixed ended column about an axis perpendicular to the 30mm dimension. Determine the safe central load using a factor of safety of 2.5 and E= 70 Gpa.
