An axial load P is supported by a short W250 3 67 column of cross-sectional area A 5
Chapter 8, Problem 8.17(choose chapter or problem)
An axial load P is supported by a short \(\mathrm{W} 250 \times 67\) column of cross-sectional area \(A=8580 \mathrm{\ m}^{2}\) and is distributed to a concrete foundation by a square plate as shown. Knowing that the average normal stress in the column must not exceed 150 MPa and that the bearing stress on the concrete foundation must not exceed 12.5 MPa, determine the side a of the plate that will provide the most economical and safe design.
