supported with a column (member CD). Moment M is applied to Point B, which is located at the midspan of the beam AC. The column is required to prevent excessive deflection of the beam as shown below. Determine the ratio of internal force in the column (member CD) to the critical buckling load of the column (Pcr). The length for both of the members, L, is 1,500 mm. The applied moment, M, is 80 kN·m. The flexural rigidity, EI, is 4.0X107 kN·mm2.

Moments

There are various practical applications of the concept of moments, like a rotation of the crank due to linear motion of the piston, the moment of inertia and its use in designing beams and columns, bending moment concept, torque, twisting moment, etc.
