what is Strut? long column or short column?

Submitted by debian_asl on

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.

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.
