The W250 28 A-36 steel column is fixed at its base. Its top is constrained to rotate about the \(y-y\) axis and free to move along the \(y-y\) axis. If \(e=350 \mathrm{~mm}\), determine the allowable eccentric force \(P\) that can be applied without causing the column either to buckle or yield. Use F.S. \(=2\) against buckling and F.S. \(=1.5\) against yielding.
