Consider the axially loaded column shown in Figure Q2 below. The column is restrained against minor axis buckling only at B. You may assume that the column has the following properties, Ixx = 6125 cm, Iyy = 2065 cm, cross-sectional area A = 76.4 cm² and Young's modulus E = 200 kN/mm². с бт B 3m Figure Q2 (a) Determine the critical stress in the column. (10 marks) (b) If additional restraint against major axis buckling only was provided half-way between A and C and the applied axial load was P = 1500 kN, what would be the factor of safety against buckling? (10 marks) (c) If the column is to be manufactured using steel with a yield stress of o, = 300 N/mm2, comment on the impact this will have on your design calculations from part (b)? (5 marks)
