StaadPro Buckling Analysis
StaadPro Buckling Analysis
(OP)
I need someone to show me the steps to perform buckling analysis in staadpro.
E.g: A steel strut 0.15m diameter and 12m long, built in rigidly at the bottom but completely unrestrained at the top. Ans = 89.4kN. Take E= 205GPa.
I have tried tirelessly but still cannot get the correct factor.
Please do help by sending me a stepwise description of the process and possibly a staadpro file containing the solution.
Thanks.

I see a few buckling analysis posts there already.

Based on the information provided the numbers I get are:
Euler buckling load: 87.29 kN
Linear buckling analysis (1 segment): 87.95 kN
Linear buckling analysis (10 segments): 87.29 kN
Non-linear buckling analysis (10 segments): 87.47 kN
What buckling load are you getting from your STAADPro analysis?
