compression structures tension structures a b Question 1a are tension structures or compression structures more efficient when loaded axially?
they are not subject to buckling they are usually made of steel they pull straight they are stronger a b d c Question 1b why are tension structures more efficient?
a column which looks short a fat column a column which will fail in true compression a b c Question 2a what is meant by a short column?
a column which looks long a thin column a column which buckles before its full compressive strength is reached a b c Question 2b what is meant by a long column?
the moment of inertia, I the modulus of elasticity, E the maximum allowable compressive strength the slenderness ratio the end fixing conditions b, c and d b, d and e a b d e g c f Question 3 what affects the buckling load?
I-sections sections with similar radii of gyration in all directions rectangular sections sections in which the major part of the material is as far from the Centre of Gravity as possible b and d a b d e c Question 4a what are good sections for columns?
why are these good sections for columns? they are cheaper so that they do not buckle in the weak direction they use the material more efficiently a and c a, b and c a b d e c Question 4b similar radii of gyration in all directions and material far away from the Centre of Gravity
bad construction a horizontal load an eccentric vertical load b and c a b d c Question 5 what are two effects which can cause a pier to overturn?
the force acting on the pier being in the middle third of the pier the resultant reaction being in the middle third of the base a b Question 6a does the middle third rule deal with?
the pier will not overturn no tension will develop in the base of the pier the pier will not lift off its base b and c a and b a b d e c Question 6b if the middle third rule holds, what does that tell you?

enough ! next question Off to a Good Start !! tension structures are more efficient
let me try again let me out of here Sorry what’s the problem with compression structures?
enough ! next question you've got it it!! Yep! No buckling! Can use all its strength !!
let me try again let me out of here No, That's not it ! they may be made of steel but then again they may be made of other materials
let me try again let me out of here No, That's not it ! they do pull straight but so what?
let me try again let me out of here No, That's not it ! some materials are stronger in compression some materials are equally strong in compression and tension so what is it about compression that may lead to early failure?
enough ! next question terriffic !! it does probably looks short and fat but the technical answer is that it fails in true compression
let me try again let me out of here That may be true but it’s not really the answer
enough ! next question terriffic !! it does probably looks long and thin but the technical answer is that it fails in buckling before true compression
let me try again let me out of here That may be true but it’s not really the answer
enough ! next question Fantastic the ease of buckling is a function of the slenderness ratio, the modulus of elasticity and the end restraints the slenderness ratio takes into account the effective length and the radius of gyration which takes into account the Moment of Inertia. The greater the slenderness ratio, the more likely buckling will occur. Materials with a higher Modulus of Elasticity, E, will less likely buckle. The more restrained the ends, the less likely to buckle.
let me try again let me out of here No, No, No !! buckling is not a function of the maximum allowable compressive stress. Buckling doesn’t allow the element to reach its maximum allowable stress
let me try again let me out of here Partly ! but it is affected by other things too
let me try again let me out of here Not Exactly ! the Moment of Inertia figures in it but as part of something else
next question enough ! Yipee !! you’ve got it !!
let me try again let me out of here No, No, No !! think again – why are I-sections or rectangular sections not good for columns
let me try again let me out of here Partly Right !
