A sign for an automobile service station is supported by two aluminum poles of hollow circular cross section, as shown in the figure. The poles are being designed to resist a wind pressure of 75 lb/ft" against the full area of the sign. The dimensions of the poles and sign are hx= 20 ft, /r =5 ft, and h = 10 ft. To prevent buckling of the walls of the poles, the thickness e is specified as one-tenth the outside diameter d.
