Submitted by debian_asl on Thu, 07/01/2010 - 18:20 dear friends, I am a bit confused as some literature says its a long column and other says short column meant to take compressive loads only. Azadeh Sheidaei buckling short column long column you see short column and long column when your load is compression and you are concern about buckling. you can find more information here. http://www.efunda.com/formulae/solid_mechanics/columns/intro.cfm Azadeh Log in to post comments Fri, 07/02/2010 - 01:51 Permalink debian_asl In reply to buckling short column long column by Azadeh Sheidaei Strut - long/short column thanks for your reply. Actually, i wanted to know about strut. I mean how to define strut. Should we consider, strut as short/long column.

Strut - long/short column
thanks for your reply.

strut compression
Strut is designed to resist longitudinal compresssion. they have high slender ratio (lenght/thickness) but again you should calculate slender ratio to make sure that it is long/short column.
