Question: A wide-flange member (W 200 ( 22.5) is compressed by axial loads that have a resultant P acting at the point shown in the figure.

A wide-flange member (W 200 ( 22.5) is compressed by axial loads that have a resultant P acting at the point shown in the figure. The member has modulus of elasticity E = 2000 GPa and pinned conditions at the ends. Lateral supports prevent any bending about the weak axis of the cross section.
If the length of the member is 6.2 mm, and the deflection is limited to 6.5 mm, what is the maximum allowable load Pallow?
