Series No. 1: CHAPTER 2: CALCULATION OF PARTS REQUESTED IN SIMPLE COMPRESSION

 

EXERCISE 1:

Calculate the buckling resistance of a double-articulated column with HEA320 section in S235 steel, of length L0= 4.5m and loaded in axial compression equal to Nsd= 2500 KN. The support conditions are presented in the figure below :(Figure 1)

 1) Calculate the elastic critical load Ncr,y and Ncr,z

2) Check the buckling stability of the column according to EC3, CCM97.
