Find the allowable axial compressive load for a W840 structural steel column of
ASTM A36 steel. The column has an un-braced length of 24ft with respect to the X-
x axis and 12ft with respect to the Y-Y axis, as illustrated in the accompanying
diagram. The column is pin connected at the top and fixed at the bottom. (assume that
the column is pin connected at mid-height)
