The length of rolled steel channel in Figure 2 is fixed rigidly at one end and is free at the other end
and is subjected to an axial load. It has a flange width of 93mm (A) and a depth of 48 mm (B).
Both the web and flange have a thickness of 8mm (C). The modulus of elasticity is 208 GPa and the yield stress is 290 MPa.
