Rigid beam ABC is supported by a pinned connection at A and by a timber post that is pin-connected at B and D as shown. A distributed load of w = 2.1 kips/ft acts on the 11-ft-long beam, which has length dimensions of x1 = 6 ft and x2 = 5 ft. The timber post has a length of L = 8 ft, an elastic modulus of E = 1,800 ksi, and a square cross section. If a factor of safety of 1.7 with respect to buckling is specified, determine the minimum width b required for the square post. W A B с x X2 L (1) D Answer: b= i in.
