Question:

A concrete table column-support with the profile shown in the


accompanying figure is to carry a load of approximately 500 lb.
Using the direct method discussed in Section 1.5, determine the
deflection and average normal stresses along the column. Divide the
column into five elements. (E = 3.27 × 103 ksi)

Answer :

Draw the sub divisional cross section of concrete table column


support,
