Question:
The buckling load will be maximum for a column, if
The buckling load will be maximum for a column, if
Show Hint
More end restraint = greater resistance to buckling.
Updated On: June 02, 2025
- One end of the column is clamped and the other end is free
- Both the ends of the column are clamped
- Both the ends of the column are hinged
- One end of the column is hinged and the other end is free
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
A clamped-clamped column offers maximum stiffness and hence the highest critical buckling load.
