For part d, column size determination.... I'm guessing they chose 0.7 for a k value? Top fixed and bottom pinned with L of 14.5 feet, maybe. Would anyone else be able to determine from the diagram that k actually equals 0.7? I'm confused.
I think there's other errors in that part, but I'm not sure I'd use 0.7 to determine a column size. I guess I'd use 1.0
