Chapter 11, Problem 11.3.13P
A horizontal beam AB has a sliding support at end A and carries a load Q at end B, as shown in the figure part a. The beam is supported at C and D by two identical pinned-end columns of length L. Each column has flexural rigidity EI.
- Find an expression for the critical load QCT. (In other words, at what load Qcrdoes the system collapse because of Eu 1er buckling of the columns?)
- Repeat part (a), but assume a pin support at A. Find an expression for the critical moment Mcr(i.e., find the moment M at B at which the system collapses because of Euler buckling of the columns).
