Column load bearing calculations

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the need for load-bearing calculations for metal square tube columns, specifically highlighting the dependency of column strength on end conditions. Engineeringtoolbox.com is identified as a valuable resource for information on Hollow Structural Sections (HSS). The conversation emphasizes that these calculations cannot be easily tabulated due to varying conditions affecting strength.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of load-bearing calculations
  • Familiarity with metal square tube columns
  • Knowledge of end conditions in structural engineering
  • Basic principles of Hollow Structural Sections (HSS)
NEXT STEPS
  • Research load-bearing calculations for metal square tube columns
  • Explore Engineeringtoolbox.com for resources on HSS
  • Study the impact of end conditions on column strength
  • Learn about structural analysis techniques for metal columns
USEFUL FOR

Structural engineers, architects, and construction professionals involved in designing and analyzing metal column structures.

TL;DR
column bearing calculations
Are there any websites that might have load bearing calculations for metal square tube columns. Thanks in advance...
 
Physics news on Phys.org
The strength of the column is quite dependent on the end conditions, so this really cannot be easily tabulated.
 
Understood. Thank you for the response..
