DESIGN OF
COMPRESSION MEMBERS
OBJECTIVES:
At the end of the lesson, you should be able to:
➢ interpret the behavior of compression members and
columns under load;
➢ evaluate the principles behind allowable stresses in
compression; and
➢ manifest competence in applying NSCP 2015
provisions for the design of compression members.
MODES OF FAILURE FOR COLUMNS
1. Flexural Buckling (Global Buckling)
Members
subjected to
flexure/
bending that
causes
instability.
MODES OF FAILURE FOR COLUMNS
2. Local Buckling
Some elements in the cross section buckle locally even before the whole member
itself buckle.
To avoid local buckling, width to thickness ratio of the sections should be considered.
