The effective length of a prismatic compression members in which translation and rotation is restrained at both end is given by (L = unsupported length of the compression member):
The effective length of a prismatic compression members in which translation and rotation is restrained at both end is given by (L = unsupported length of the compression member): Correct Answer 0.65 L
Concept:
Effective length is the distance between two consecutive points of contra-flexure or between points of zero bending moment.
The effective length of column used in calculating the Euler's crippling load is:
- Fixed end: Restrained in both translation and rotation
- Hinged end: Restrained in translation but free in rotation
- Free end: Free in both translation and rotation.
As per IS 800 - 2007:
The effective length of a prismatic compression member of various degrees of end restraint of compression member are given below:
From the above table, it is clear that The effective length of prismatic compression members in which translation and rotation are restrained at both ends is given by 0.65 L
