configuration.
Now, a small lateral force causes large deformation
in lateral direction.
The axial load that demarcates the stable and unstable
equilibrium of a straight column is Critical Load (Pcr) or
Euler Load (Pe). 3

Intermediate Columns:
Compressive stress exceeds the proportional limit of
the material (below the yielding stress),
Buckling may occur first before the yielding, therefore,
referred as inelastic buckling.
Critical load (Pcr) governs the limit state (Euler
equation(s) should be modified to apply for inelastic
buckling).

Eccentrically Loaded Columns
Two methods
Allowable-Stress Method
• It is assumed that the allowable stresses for
eccentric loaded column is the same as used
for centric loaded.
(2)
Interaction Method
• Two allowable stresses are used, one for centric
loaded part and second for the bending part.

SLO 2.2
A = 4 in2
I = 1.333 in4
r = 0.5774 in (r2 = I/A)
L/r = 48.5
Select equation for L/r = 48.5
Use 1st Eq. for Aluminum Alloy 2014-T6 to get σall
σall = 30.9 – 0.229 (Le/r)

SLO 2.2
A = 2b2 in2 and I = b4/6 in4
r = 0.2886b
L/r = 103.92/b
Assume L/r < 66
First apply Eq.(1) for Aluminum Alloy 6061-T6
σmax =P/A= σall = 20.3 – 0.127(L/r) >> b=0.958
Check: L/r = 109 > 66, Not OK, Use Eq. (2)
σmax =P/A= σall = 51400/(L/r)2 >> b=1.06, say b=1.1
Check: L/r = 94 > 66, OK

Sample Problem 3: Solution
For Academic use only. No commercial use without prior permission of
SLO 2.2:
A = 18 in2,
e = 5 in
My = Pz x ex = 5P
Iy = 54 in4
KL/d = 2x6x12/3 = 48
As KL/d > 26 and KL/d >50,
Use 3rd Eq. for NFPA equations
σall = 540/(kL/d)2 = 0.234 ksi
Use Allowable stress method

SLO 2.2:
A = 8 in2, Ix = 33.167 in4, Iy = 10.167 in4
rx = 2.036 in, ry = 1.127 in
Use rmin, L/rmin = 2x96/(1.127) = 170.36 > 55,
Use 2nd Eq. for Aluminum Alloy 2014-T6
σall = 55400/(L/r)2 = 1.91 ksi
Use Allowable-stress method, P = 2.86 kips
SLO 2.4:
A = 8 in2, Ix = 33.167 in4, Iy = 10.167 in4
rx = 2.036 in, ry = 1.127 in

SLO 2.2
(a):
r = d/4 and L/r = 3000/d
First apply Eq.(1) for Aluminum Alloy 2014-T6
σmax =P/A= σall = 213 – 1.577(L/r) >> d=33
Check: L/r = 91 > 55, Not OK, Use Eq. (2)
σmax =P/A= σall = 382000/(L/r)2 >> d=36.62, say d = 37 mm
Check: L/r = 81 > 55 and
σmax =P/A= 55.8 (=P/A) MPa < 58 MPa (=382000/(81)2, OK

P/(4x19.79) + Px0.8x1/(1.333x24)) = 1
P= 26.6 kips (Interaction method)
Comments: ??
Allowable stress method is more conservative as it uses
lower value of allowable stress in bending.
