Q.3 (b) A steel column with a uniform rectangular hollow section is subjected to a concentric axial compressive load P. The column has a fixed support and a free end as shown in Figure Q.3b. (i) Determine if Euler's formula can be applied to analyze this column. (10 marks) (ii) Calculate the allowable load of the column if the factor of safety is 2. (2 marks) Use physical parameters: E = 205 kN/mm²; Oyield = 275 N/mm2 P Y A B 15 125 → 5 m x X P 125 D с 250 250 Y Figure Q.3b (All units are in mm unless otherwise stated.)
