Eccentric column buckling
When the geometrical centre of area (centroid) of a column does not correspond to the load path, the situation introduces eccentric loading, which can lead to additional bending moments along with axial compression. Here’s how you can approach the buckling analysis in this case: 1. Determine Eccentricity (e): 2. Calculate the Total Stress: Where: 3. Account for Buckling Using…
