Three Aluminum Design Codes: Buckling

Publication: Structures 2001: A Structural Engineering Odyssey

Abstract

This paper is one of three which compare the rules in three aluminum codes of practice for the design of aluminum components subjected to static loads. The subject here is buckling and the design of members in compression. (Other papers deal with Material Properties and Connections, and Tension Members). By reviewing the various treatments it is intended to provide assistance in drafting a Guide which will cover all the pertinent cases using the most suitable procedures and presenting them in a uniform and coherent fashion acceptable to the widest possible audience.
