A steel column of rectangular section (15 mm × 10 mm) and length 1.5 m is simply supported at both ends. Assuming modulus of elasticity, E = 200 GPa for steel, the critical axial load (in kN) is _____ (correct to two decimal places)
-
- 1.097
- 1.397
- 1.297
- 1.197
Correct Option: A
Steel column supported at both ends = hinged at both ends.
so for hinged condition:-
Effective length, Le = L
so buckling load
