Along, slender structural steel [e = 29,000 ksi] hss8 x 4 x 1/4 shape (see appendix b for its cross-sectional properties) is used as a l = 43.50-ft-long column. the column is supported in the x direction at base a and pinned at ends a and c against translation in the y and z directions. lateral support is provided to the column so that deflection in the x–z plane is restrained at mid-height b; however, the column is free to deflect in the x–y plane at b. determine the maximum compressive load that the column can support if a factor of safety of 1.90 is required. in your analysis, consider the possibility that buckling could occur about either the strong axis (i. e., the z axis) or the weak axis (i. e., the y axis) of the steel column.
