Abstract
The buckling problem of a column weakened at an interior location is studied for the first time. The weakness is modeled by a rotationally restrained junction. Exact buckling load values are obtained for the weakened column with various end conditions. Depending on the end conditions of the column, the buckling loads show sensitivity (and insensitivity) to junction location and rotational stiffness. The optimum location of the junction could be at the midpoint, at the ends, or somewhere in between.
