Aerospace Engineering > GATE 2011 > Column Buckling
A simply supported slender column of square cross section (width=depth=d) has to be designed
such that it buckles at the same instant as it yields. Length of the column is given to be 1.57 m and
it is made of a material whose Young's modulus is 200 GPa and yield stress is 240 MPa. The
width, d, of the column (in cm) should be

Correct : 6.00
