- A fixed-pinned column is a W310 × 21 steel shape and is designed to carry an axial load of 125 kN. Determine the maximum permissible height L of the column if a factor of safety n = 2.5 is required with respect to the buckling of the column. Use E = 205 GPa and assume that the proportional limit is 340 MPa. The column may buckle about either axis of the cross section.arrow_forwardDetermine the allowable axial load Pallowfor a steel pipe column that is fixed at the base and free at the top (see figure) for each of the following lengths: L = 6 ft, 9 ft, 12 ft, and 15 ft.
