As the two ends are free for rotation so no reaction moments will be present at the ends. Also the equivalent length of the beam will be equal to the actual length of the beam.
i. e. le = l = 60cm = 600 mm
As the load applied over the beam (85kg) is much more than the crippling load or the load required to buckle the beam (62.53 kg), so the beam will buckle for sure.
Note: We need to take the minimum moment of inertia in the formula. Out of the two moment of inertias (Along XX and YY axis), take the minimum one. Because if we plug minimum value of inertia in the formula , we will get minimun load require to buckle it. Means it will easily buckle along XX axis in comparison with along the YY axis.
Or Rajab Fahdaw 1) A vertically positioned beam was subjected t o 85 Kg axial load. Is the load capable of buckling the beam to failure if you know that the beam is free from both ends and has...
A 3 m rigid bar AB is supported with a vertical translational spring at A and a pin at B The bar is subjected to a linearly varying distributed load with maximum intensity g Calculate the vertical deformation of the spring if the spring constant is 700 kN/m. (ans: 21.43 mm) 2. A steel cable with a nominal diameter of 25 mm is used in a construction yard to lift a bridge section weighing 38 kN. The cable has an...
