Assignrnent Tasks

Task 1) A 3d View and a plan is shown in figure la and figure lb respectively. Each student need to analyze the structural elements using the Double integration method, Moment Distribution method, Strain Energy Method, and Buckling of column concepts. The type of structural elements to be analyzed are mentioned below and in excel sheet. Each student has been provided with different values of the dimensions, Loads and materiai properties,

Question 5. Buckling of Column
"Pin- Pin column Cl (Figure 6), is subjected to an axial compressive load (assume: actua' load = 2,25 R
a) Determine the maximum axial load it can support before buckling What is the F.0.5?
b) If ends conditions changed to Fixed power) -Pinned, find maximum axial load it can support before buckling. What is the E.0.5?"
