How to Calculate Q Factor?
Q Factor calculator uses Q Factors=((effective length factor*Length/Least Radius of Gyration)^2)*(Yield Strength/(2*pi*pi*Modulus Of Elasticity)) to calculate the Q Factors, The Q Factor formula is defined as geometrical constant depending upon material of member along with slenderness ratio. Q Factors and is denoted by Q symbol.
How to calculate Q Factor using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Q Factor, enter effective length factor (k), Length (l), Least Radius of Gyration (r), Yield Strength (σy) and Modulus Of Elasticity (E) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Q Factor calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.638323 = ((1*3/50)^2)*(35000000/(2*pi*pi*10000)).
