Behaviour of Columns, The

Synopsis
Discusses the mechanical properties of a cross-section. In laboratory tests the differences between stocky and slender columns, between their plastic and elastic behaviour, as well as the effect of non-linear behaviour and residual stresses are shown. By using a model, the effect of clamping on the buckling length is demonstrated.
