Question
The steel pipe is fixed supported at its ends. If it is 4 m long and has an outer diameter of 50 mm, determine its required thickness so that it can support an axial load of P = I 00 kN without buckling.., = 200 G Pa, uy = 250 MPa.
Solution
The first step in solving 17.4 problem number 77 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: The steel pipe is fixed supported at its ends. If it is 4 m long and has an outer diameter of 50 mm, determine its required thickness so that it can support an axial load of P = I 00 kN without buckling.., = 200 G Pa, uy = 250 MPa.
From the textbook chapter The Secant Formula you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
