7 Consider the long, slender compression member shown in figure a. If the axial load P is slowly applied, it will ultimately become large enough to cause the member to become unstable and assume the shape indicated by the dashed line. The member is said to have buckled, and the corresponding load is called the critical buckling load.

14 Problem 3- A W460 x 177 column section has a length of 8 m. Using AISC specification; A = 22,600 mm^2 , r = 68.20 mm, Es = 200,000 MPa and Fy = 380 MPa. Using 2015 NSCP Requirements. a. What is the allowable design load if both ends are hinged. b. What is the allowable design load if both ends are fixed.
15 Problem 3- The properties of the column are the following; A = 8,129 mm^2 , Ix = 178.3x10^6 mm^4 , Iy = 18.8x10^6 mm^4 , fy = 345 MPa, E = 200, MPa and proportional limit (fs) = 320 MPa.^ The x-axis has an unbraced length of 8 m which is pinned at the top and fixed at the bottom with K = 0.70 to prevent sidesway. The y-axis has an unbraced length of 4 m due to the bracing at the mid-height. a. Determine the critical slenderness ratio b. Compute the initial compressive load of the column c. What is the minimum length that will not exceed the proportional limit

29 When an axially loaded compression member becomes unstable overall (that is, not locally unstable), it can buckle in one of three ways, as shown in figure
30 3.5.1 Flexural buckling We have considered this type of buckling up to now. It is a deflection caused by bending, or flexure, about the axis corresponding to the largest slenderness ratio. This is usually the minor principal axis the one with the smallest radius of gyration. Compression members with any type of cross-sectional configuration can fail in this way.
31 3.5.2 Torsional buckling This type of failure is caused by twisting about the longitudinal axis of the member. It can occur only with doubly symmetrical cross sections with very slender cross-sectional elements. Standard hot-rolled shapes are not susceptible to torsional buckling, but members built up from thin plate elements may be and should be investigated.
32 3.5.3 Flexural-Torsional buckling This type of failure is caused by a combination of flexural buckling and torsional buckling. The member bends and twists simultaneously. This type of failure can occur only with unsymmetrical cross sections, both those with one axis of symmetry such as channels, structural tees, double-angle shapes, and equal-leg single angles and those with no axis of symmetry, such as unequal-leg single angles.
