8.3 Identify the correct statement(s): • Column effective length depends on its unbraced length and end connections • Given the same unbraced length, the effective length of a column having simple hinge connections is greater than that having fixed end connections. • Under the same compressive load, a slender column is prone to larger lateral deflection and higher stresses than a short column with the same cross-section.
