What is the failure pattern of a column with low slenderness ratio (i.e., relatively short and stocky column) subjected to an
axial load which can cause failure?
A column having a low slenderness ratio is classified as a short column. Such columns generally
fail by crushing of the material when the compressive stress reaches its ultimate strength, rather
than by buckling.
कम तनुता अनुपात वाले स्तम्भ को लघु स्तम्भ (Short Column) कहा जाता है। ऐसे स्तम्भ सामान्यतः बकलिंग (Buckling) के
बजाय संपीडन प्रतिबल के कारण विफल होते हैं, जब सामग्री का प्रतिबल उसकी चरम सामर्थ्य तक पहुँच जाता है।
Failure Pattern
Short Column / लघु स्तम्भ → Crushing Failure / संदलन विफलता
Long Column / लंबे स्तम्भ → Buckling Failure / बकलिंग विफलता
