Variables Used

Column Cross-Sectional Area - (Measured in Square Millimeter) - Column Cross-Sectional Area is the area of a two-dimensional shape that is obtained when a three-dimensional object is sliced perpendicular to some specified axis at a point.
Buckling Load - (Measured in Newton) - The Buckling Load is the load at which the column starts buckling. The buckling load of a given material depends on the Slenderness ratio, Area of a cross-section, and Modulus of Elasticity.
Effective Length of Column - (Measured in Millimeter) - The Effective Length of Column can be defined as the length of an equivalent pin-ended column having the same load-carrying capacity as the member under consideration.
Radius of Gyration of Column - (Measured in Millimeter) - The Radius of Gyration of Column about the axis of rotation is defined as the radial distance to a point which would have a moment of inertia the same as the body's actual distribution of mass.
Modulus of Elasticity - (Measured in Megapascal) - The Modulus of Elasticity is the measure of the stiffness of a material. It is the slope of stress and strain diagram up to the limit of proportionality.

Column End Conditions for Effective Length of Column.

The coefficient n accounts for end conditions.
When the column is pivoted at both ends, n = 1;
when one end is fixed and the other end is rounded, n = 0.7;
when both ends are fixed, n = 0.5; and
when one end is fixed and the other is free, n = 2.

Define Buckling.

In structural engineering, buckling is the sudden change in shape (deformation) of a structural component under load, such as the bowing of a column under compression or the wrinkling of a plate under shear.
