7 .0 THE CHECK OF COLUMN BACKLING

7 .1 Input data
Column section UPN 80 with length of… 2 meter, strength 245 N/mm2
Section property:
Wx= 26500 mm3 Wy= 9700 mm3 Aa= 1100 mm2
Tw= 6 mm ry= 15.8 mm H= 80 mm
B= 45 mm Tf= 8 mm ro= NA mm
The forces are as follows:
Fx= 3.44 kN-compression force safety Fx= 6.88 kN
Mx= 0.012 kNm-bending at major axis 2 factor Mx= 0.024 kNm
My= 0 kNm-bending at minor axis My= 0 kNm
7 .2 The buckling checking
λlt=u*v*λ*(βw)^0.5=……… 74.369818 slenderness for box sections
Pc=Aa*Py=……….. 269.5 kN-compression resistance
Py*Wy=……………. 2.3765 kNm-bending resistance at minor axis
Mbs=Pb*Wxeff=….. 4.2135 kNm-bending resistance at major axis, where:
Pb= 159 N/mm2-bending strength for rolled section table 16-BS 5950
u= 0.9 buckling parameter for hot rolled sections
x= 13.333333 torsional index (x=D/T)
λ= 126.58228 slenderness (λ=L/ry)
v= 0.6528017 slenderness factor v=1/((1+0.05*(λ/x)^2)^0.25)
βw= 1 ratio (βw=Wxeff/Wx)
The b1, H1 and ε are the same as for tube section only the values will be taken half
ε= 1.0594569
b1= 127.13483 mm
H1= 169.51311 mm
since the H1>H, and B1>B, Wxeff=Wx
Wxeff= 26500 mm3
mlt= 0.44

7 .3 Bending moment at major axis should satisfy:

7 .3. 1 Mx<Mbs/mlt
Mx= 0.024 kNm………….. < 9.576136 kNm-Mbs/mlt……………………………..……… safe
7 .3. 2 Mx<Mxcap
Mx= 0.024 kNm………….. < 6.4925 kNm-Mxcap………………………………………. safe

7 .4 Total buckling stress ratio

(Fc/Pc)+(Mx/Mbs)+(My/Py*Wy)=…. 0.015612 < 1…………………………… safe
