    How Does End Fixation Affect Slenderness Ratio and Axial Load in Steel Columns?

    I got the 11.5mm flange thickness from the same british standards table for that particular column. do you mean by the two end results as in the 29N and the 39N or do each of the results make sense with how they are fixed (both pin-jointed, etc...)?

    How Does End Fixation Affect Slenderness Ratio and Axial Load in Steel Columns?

    Ok.. I've got some figures from the british standards universal column table. it isn't hollow but is an "H" column. so... for serial size 152 x 152 x 37: Cross sec. area (A) = 47.1cm = 471mm² Radius of gyration (k) = 38.7mm so slenderness ratio for a): S.R = l/k = 6.5 x 10³/38.7...

    How Does End Fixation Affect Slenderness Ratio and Axial Load in Steel Columns?

    thanx for your reply... i was sort of stuck on the dimensions aswell. I have done the following calculations and they do fall in the table i got but if i could run it past you could you tell me if it makes sense. here it is: I=bd³/12 = 37 x 152³/12 = 11.93 x 10[SIZE="1"]6mm[SIZE="1"]4(sorry...

    How Does End Fixation Affect Slenderness Ratio and Axial Load in Steel Columns?

    Hi Fred, thanks for replying to my post. however, that is exactly how the question is written word for word. Compare the slenderness ratio and maximum safe axial load that a universal column of section 152 x 152 x 37 can carry if it is made from grade 43 steel to BS5950; 1985 and 6.5m in...

    How Does End Fixation Affect Slenderness Ratio and Axial Load in Steel Columns?

    Hi, I have the following question to complete and i was wondering if anyone can help.. Compare the slenderness ratio and maximum safe axial load that a universal column of section 152 x 152 x 37 can carry if it is made from grade 43 steel to BS5950; 1985 and 6.5m in height when its ends are...
