Ultimate Limit States ULS (EN 1990 64)

EQU (equilibrium) - loss of static equilibrium of the structure or any part of it

considered as a rigid body

STR (strength) - internal failure or excessive deformaton of the structure or structural

member

GEO (geotechnics) - failure or excessive deformaton of the ground

FAT (fatigue) - fatigue failure

Generalization

Formula was elaborated for five assumptions as follow

1 EJ = const (but what if not)

2 N = const (but what if not)

3 Two hinges (but what if not)

4 Force applied in gravity center (but what if not)

5 Bar has straight axis (but what if not)

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

parallel to weak axis (deflection)

Final mode of destruction - buckling or destruction of support - depends on geometrical

characteristics of beam length of beam and type of supports

Deflection

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Photo Author

No buckling

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

According to EN 1993-1-1 6322 (2) critical

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

about this influence except recalculation as above

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

Deformation as the result of torsional moment

Deformation from initial imperfection

Various points of loadrsquos application makes various

effects of deformations These deformations from

torsional moment can intensify or weaken the

impact of initial imperfections As a result the

cross-section may lose stability more easily (smaller

Mcr) or more difficult (larger Mcr)

Initial imperfections make eccentricity e and

torsional moment MT as the secondary effect of

load

But for this situation only one way of destruction

is possible ndash by destruction of support

Why there are one possibility for weak

axis and two for strong axis

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

parallel to strong axis (lateral buckling)

parallel to weak axis (deflection)

have similar values of internal energy

Final mode of destruction - buckling or destruction of support - depends on geometrical

characteristics of beam length of beam and type of supports

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

No buckling

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

According to EN 1993-1-1 6322 (2) critical

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

about this influence except recalculation as above

(recalculation for cLT no Mcr) Maybe this means

that we should use other formula for Mcr than

formula on t 69

Generally bi-symmetrical cross-section is the most often case for steel

structures

Various points of loadrsquos application makes various

effects of deformations These deformations from

torsional moment can intensify or weaken the

impact of initial imperfections As a result the

cross-section may lose stability more easily (smaller

Mcr) or more difficult (larger Mcr)

Initial imperfections make eccentricity e and

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

According to EN 1993-1-1 6322 (2) critical

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

about this influence except recalculation as above

(recalculation for cLT no Mcr) Maybe this means

that we should use other formula for Mcr than

impact of initial imperfections As a result the

Generalization

Formula was elaborated for five assumptions as follow

1 EJ = const (but what if not)

2 N = const (but what if not)

3 Two hinges (but what if not)

4 Force applied in gravity center (but what if not)

5 Bar has straight axis (but what if not)

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

According to EN 1993-1-1 6322 (2) critical

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

about this influence except recalculation as above

(recalculation for cLT no Mcr) Maybe this means

that we should use other formula for Mcr than

formula on t 69

1 M ne const (alternative way)

or

2 Not bi-symmetrical cross-section

or

5 Load applied out of shear center

Generally bi-symmetrical cross-section is the most often case for steel

structures

If not we use other formula for Mcr

Deformation as the result of torsional moment

Deformation from initial imperfection

Various points of loadrsquos application makes various

effects of deformations These deformations from

torsional moment can intensify or weaken the

impact of initial imperfections As a result the

cross-section may lose stability more easily (smaller

Mcr) or more difficult (larger Mcr)

Initial imperfections make eccentricity e and

torsional moment MT as the secondary effect of

load

3 The same situation as for previous type of instability (flexuram buckling)

EJ = const is the most often case Differences are negligible if a le 10o for calculations

But for this situation only one way of destruction

is possible ndash by destruction of support

Why there are one possibility for weak

axis and two for strong axis

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

parallel to weak axis (deflection)

characteristics of beam length of beam and type of supports

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

No buckling

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

According to EN 1993-1-1 6322 (2) critical

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

about this influence except recalculation as above

(recalculation for cLT no Mcr) Maybe this means

that we should use other formula for Mcr than

effects of deformations These deformations from

impact of initial imperfections As a result the

But for this situation only one way of destruction

Why there are one possibility for weak

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

According to EN 1993-1-1 6322 (2) critical

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

about this influence except recalculation as above

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

characteristics of beam length of beam and type of supports

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

No buckling

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

According to EN 1993-1-1 6322 (2) critical

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

about this influence except recalculation as above

(recalculation for cLT no Mcr) Maybe this means

that we should use other formula for Mcr than

Generally bi-symmetrical cross-section is the most often case for steel

Various points of loadrsquos application makes various

effects of deformations These deformations from

impact of initial imperfections As a result the

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

According to EN 1993-1-1 6322 (2) critical

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

about this influence except recalculation as above

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

According to EN 1993-1-1 6322 (2) critical

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

about this influence except recalculation as above

No buckling

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

According to EN 1993-1-1 6322 (2) critical

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

about this influence except recalculation as above

(recalculation for cLT no Mcr) Maybe this means

that we should use other formula for Mcr than

effects of deformations These deformations from

impact of initial imperfections As a result the

Various points of loadrsquos application makes various

effects of deformations These deformations from

torsional moment can intensify or weaken the

impact of initial imperfections As a result the

cross-section may lose stability more easily (smaller

Mcr) or more difficult (larger Mcr)

Initial imperfections make eccentricity e and

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

No buckling

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

According to EN 1993-1-1 6322 (2) critical

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

about this influence except recalculation as above

(recalculation for cLT no Mcr) Maybe this means

that we should use other formula for Mcr than

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

According to EN 1993-1-1 6322 (2) critical

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

about this influence except recalculation as above

that we should use other formula for Mcr than

Why there are one possibility for weak

axis and two for strong axis

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

characteristics of beam length of beam and type of supports

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

No buckling

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

effects of deformations These deformations from

impact of initial imperfections As a result the

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

characteristics of beam length of beam and type of supports

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

No buckling

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

According to EN 1993-1-1 6322 (2) critical

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

about this influence except recalculation as above

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

impact of initial imperfections As a result the

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

Why there are one possibility for weak

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

parallel to weak axis (deflection)

characteristics of beam length of beam and type of supports

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

No buckling

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

Why there are one possibility for weak

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

(Classical Mechanics Mechanics of Materials Structural Mechanics Theory of Elasticity)

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

But for this situation only one way of destruction

is possible ndash by destruction of support

Why there are one possibility for weak

axis and two for strong axis

Photo Author

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

Increasing of displacements makes increasing of internal energy Values of energy

depends on direction of load and direction of displacements

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

characteristics of beam length of beam and type of supports

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

No buckling

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

According to EN 1993-1-1 6322 (2) critical

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

about this influence except recalculation as above

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

No buckling

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

But for this situation only one way of destruction

is possible ndash by destruction of support

Why there are one possibility for weak

axis and two for strong axis

Photo Author

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

load than for perpendicular to load There is no displacement perpendicual to load

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

According to EN 1993-1-1 6322 (2) critical

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

about this influence except recalculation as above

that we should use other formula for Mcr than

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

According to EN 1993-1-1 6322 (2) critical

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

about this influence except recalculation as above

(recalculation for cLT no Mcr) Maybe this means

that we should use other formula for Mcr than

Generally bi-symmetrical cross-section is the most often case for steel

Effect of load depends on amount of internal energy

For each point inside bar we can calculate matrix of stresses and matrix of strains Product

of these two tensors is value of internal energy in any point Total internal energy for every

points in bar is equal sum after every points

Ei = int int int [s] [e] dx dy dz

Theoretically there are infinitive number of deformations for each type of loads But in

real structures for one type of load is only one type of deformation this type for which

Ei = min

During analysis of load parallel to weak axis for big value of loads both deformations

Internal energy for load parallel to strong axis is always smaller for displacement paralel to

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

Conclusions

bull lateral buckling must be analysed only for bending about strong axis (rarr potential instability about weak axis)

bull there is no need to analysis lateral buckling for bending about weak axis

bull for the same reason flexural-torsional buckling is always interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about weak axis

bull flexural-torsional buckling as interaction between torsional buckling and flexural buckling about strong axis is impossible

bull there is no lateral buckling and no torsional-flexural buckling for cross-section with Jy = Jz rarr no lateral buckling for square and round pipes

This question is not completely clear in Eurocode

According to EN 1993-1-1 6322 (2) critical

moment Mcr depends on amount others shape of

bending moment But there is no other information

about this influence except recalculation as above

(recalculation for cLT no Mcr) Maybe this means

that we should use other formula for Mcr than

formula on t 69

Generally bi-symmetrical cross-section is the most often case for steel
