In the following problem, unless otherwise noted, assume for steel that the modulus of elasticity is 30,000 ksi (207 × 103 MPa), the proportional limit is 48 ksi (331 MPa), and the yield stress is 50 ksi (345 MPa).

A W200 × 59 structural steel wide-flange section is used as a pin-ended column 7 m long. Find the allowable axial compressive load using Euler’s formula and a factor of safety of 2.5.
