If a factor of safety of 30 against euler buckling in the


A vertical post AB is embedded in a concrete foundation and held at the top by two cables (see figure). The post is a hollow steel tube with modulus of elasticity 200 GPa, outer diameter 40 mm, and thickness 5 mm. The cables are tightened equally by turnbuckles.

If a factor of safety of 3.0 against Euler buckling in the plane of the figure is desired, what is the maximum allowable tensile force Tallow in the cables?
