Question
The aluminum W 310 x 202 (wide flange) column is subjected to an eccentric axial
load P as shown. The maximum compressive stress in the column is given by the
so-called secant formula:
where
--- [¹ + ( √5)]
ec
o 1+ sec
max
E
ō = P/A = average stress
A = 25800 mm² = cross-sectional area of the column
e = 85 mm = eccentricity of the load
c = 170 mm = half depth of the column
r = 142 mm = radius of gyration of the cross section
L = 7100 mm = length of the column
E = 71 x 10⁹ Pa = modulus of elasticity
Determine the maximum load P that the column can carry if the maximum stress
is not to exceed 120 × 10^6 Pa. Terminate the computation when Σa <
0.0005%.
