(a) Determine the load combinations and the corresponding axial force
and moment at the base of the Y-shaped structure. Neglect self-weight
of the structure and consider in-plane bending only.
(b) Determine if the reinforcement shown in Fig. Q1(b) is adequate for the
section at the base of the structure. If not, suggest a suitable solution.
Hint: Derive the N-M diagram for the section and check if all combinations
of N and M fall within the diagram.
