Test: Theory of Columns - 2 - Question 1

The rectangular column shown in the figure below carries a load P having eccentricities ‘ex’ and ' ey ’ along the x-axis and y-axis respectively. The stress at any point (*, y) is given by

Detailed Solution for Test: Theory of Columns - 2 - Question 1

Stress at any point

Test: Theory of Columns - 2 - Question 2

Euler’s formula for a mild steel long column hinged  at both end is not valid for slenderness ratio

Detailed Solution for Test: Theory of Columns - 2 - Question 2

According to Euler's theory,

For a mild steel coumn,
σy = 300 N/mm2 and 
E = 2.1 x 105

Hence, when the slenderness ratio is less than this limit for mild steel columns , Euler’s formula will not be valid.
