Chapter 5 Introduction to Axially Loaded Compression Members
2 Compression Members ColumnsChords of TrussesBracing Members Columns are straight vertical members whose lengths are considerably greater than their thicknesses

4 Column Failure Modes Flexural Buckling (Euler buckling) Local BucklingTorsional Buckling
5 Flexural Buckling (Euler buckling) Length, L Material, E Cross section, A or I or r End support condition
Columns are Long and slender members subjected to an axial compressive force. Buckling is Lateral deflection of columns Buckling result in instability of columns, and causes sudden failure. Buckling occurs when load P > P cr the critical load

Structural Steel Design by McCormac and Csernak, 5th Edition, Int The strength of long columns is predicted by Euler formula (elastic buckling control) For short columns, the failure stress will equal the yield stress. For intermediate columns, the member will fail by both yielding and buckling.
