A Im long strut has the cross-section show in Fig. 3.1. Calculate the Euler buckling load for the strut if it has fixed ends. The Young's Modulus, E, for the strut is 208GN/m², (Hint: the strut has an unsymmetrical cross-section, so find the position of the neutral axes to determine the direction of minimum resistance to buckling) (20 marks) 20mm 8mm 60mm 30mm Figure 3.1
