If the maximum anticipated hoist load is 12 kip, determine if the W8 \(\times 31\) wide-flange A-36 steel column is adequate for supporting the load. The hoist travels along the bottom flange of the beam, \(1 \mathrm{ft} \leq x \leq 25 \mathrm{ft}\), and has negligible size. Assume the beam is pinned to the column at \(B\) and pin supported at \(A\). The column is also pinned at \(C\) and it is braced so it will not buckle out of the plane of the loading.
