A hollow steel column has to carry an axial load of 2,00,000 kg and the ultimate stress for the steel column is 4800 kg/cm 2and allows a load factor of 4. What is the sectional area of the column?
166.66 cm 2
Given Data for the Steel Column Axial Load (P): 2,00,000 kg Ultimate Stress (\sigma_{ultimate}): 4800 kg/cm 2 Load Factor (LF): 4 Calculating the Allowable Stress The load factor is used to calculate the allowable stress from the ultimate stress. cm^2 \ The required sectional area for the hollow steel column is approximately 166.66 cm 2 .
