    This document discusses the analysis and design of steel columns. It covers failure modes of columns, how slenderness affects column behavior, stress analysis methods, and design according to the Allowable Stress Design (ASD) method. Short columns experience crushing, while long, slender columns experience buckling. Columns are classified as short, intermediate, or long based on their slenderness ratio. The capacity of columns depends on the calculated stress value compared to the allowable stress, which is determined from tables based on the column slenderness ratio and other properties.

    Analysis of Steel Columns


    Affect of Slenderness:

    Short columns crush


    Intermediate columns crush
    partially and then buckle
    Long columns buckle (Euler)
    Slenderness Limits:
    Max short & intermediate limit
    Max long limit
    Modes of Buckling:
    Flexural (Euler) buckling
    Local buckling flange or web
    Flexural torsional buckling - twisting

    1.0 > K > 0.5

    Sidesway Uninhibited:
    Un-braced frame
    unstable > K > 1.0

    Pinned connection:
    If Ic/Lc is large
    and Ig/Lg is small
    The connection is more pinned

    Fixed connedtion:
    If Ic/Lc is small
    and Ig/Lg is large
