Euler's Formula is used to determine which of the following properties related to a simply-supported column?
A)Maximum bending moment
B)Critical buckling load
C)Shear stress
D)None of the above

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Euler's Formula is used to determine the critical buckling load of a simply-supported column. Euler's Formula is expressed as follows:
Fcr = EI?2/L2
Where
E = Young's modulus of the material used to construct the column
I = cross-sectional area moment of inertia
L = column length
