(choose chapter or problem)

A sawn-lumber column of 5.0 X 7.5-in. cross section has an effective length of 8.5 ft. The grade of wood used has an adjusted allowable stress for compression parallel to the grain \(\sigma_{C}= 1180 \mathrm{psi}\) and an adjusted modulus \(E=440 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{psi}\). Using the allowable-stress method, determine the largest eccentric load P that can be applied when (a) e = 0.5 in., (b) e = 1.0 in.
