What is long columnshort column?
Columns having slenderness ration >12 = Long column and vice versa is short column
What is the allowable limit of slenderness ratio in aluminum?
You have to know that the slenderness ratio only takes into account the shape of the column. So because of that, the slenderness ratio is the same for steel, aluminium, wood, etc. The formula KL/r where K is the equivalent length factor, L the length of the column and r the radius of gyration which is sqrt(I/A), should always stay under 200. If not, you must redesign...
Failure steps of long and short RCC Column?
A long column fails because of buckling due to higher slenderness and short column will fail due to crushing caused by compression
What is the difference between column and pillar?
Column is a member which is designed for taking buckling also in addition to transmit the load to the foundation, where as pillar will not withstand for buckle (slenderness)
What is the slenderness ratio for a intermediate concrete column?
That is depending on your KL/r value . sammy Structural engineer That is depending on your KL/r value . sammy Structural engineer
Are you calculating slenderness check for flexural beams?
no
The slenderness ratio of short columns is less then?
12
What is allowable limit of slenderness ratio in steel?
Slenderness Ratio is Basically a Ratio to decide if the Steel angle being used is acceptable for particular loads or not. There is no such allowable limit of slenderness ratio For a particular angle unless it is designed for a particular load. Slenderness Ratio indicates the buckling of the Steel angle. Less the Slenderness Ration more stronger is the Steel angle. I am an Engineer ( specialised in Towers for Transmission of High Voltages. In Our Case, we use three types of slenderness ratio . For Main Members it Should Be less Than 120 For Bracing etc it should be less than 150 and for redundant members( No load) < 200 Amit Sharma MottMacdonalds limited 00971501257201 amit.sharma@mottmac.co.ae

How do you spell slimness?
That is the correct spelling of "slimness" (slenderness, narrowness, or closeness).

What is slenderness ratio structural engineering?
The slenderness ratio is the ratio between the height or length of a structural element (such as a column, or strut) and the width or thickness of the element. For example, if a rectangular column is 6m high, and 400mm by 600mm in cross-section, then its slenderness is 6000/600 = 10 in one direction and 6000/400 = 15 in the other direction. The higher the slenderness ratio, the more slender the structural element is. How slender a structural element is allowed to be depends upon the material it is made from. Steel can be more slender than concrete, for example. In structural engineering calculations, the slenderness is often denoted as the element's "effective" length divided by something called the radius of gyration. The radius of gyration is a measure of the average distance of the material from the centroid (centre of gravity) of the element's cross section. This can be calculated as r = (I/A)0.5, where I is the second moment of area, or second moment or inertia, of the cross section and A is the area of the cross section. The effective length of an element is determined by how it is fixed at its ends. The effective length is the length of the column that will form half a sine wave if it buckles. If it is "pinned", or has hinged ends, the effective length is the true length of the element. If it is a cantilever (fixed at one end but free at the other), the effective length is twice the true length. If it is fully fixed at both ends the effective length is 0.7 times the true length, but this is in reality very difficult to achieve, so often a real structural element is considered to be only nominally fixed and the effective length is taken to be 0.85 times the true length.
