SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION 4
Buckling lengths of compression members
1. Basis
(1) The buckling length Lcr of a compression member is the length of an otherwise similar member with “pinned ends” (ends restrained against lateral movement but free to rotate in the plane of buckling) which has the same buckling resistance.
(2) In the absence of better information, the theoretical buckling length for elastic critical buckling may conservatively be adopted.
(3) An equivalent buckling length may be used to relate the buckling resistance of a member subject to non-uniform loading to that of an otherwise similar member subject to uniform loading.
(4) An equivalent buckling length may also be used to relate the buckling resistance of a non-uniform member to that of a uniform member under similar conditions of loading and restraint.
2. Columns in building frames
(1) The buckling length Lcr of a column in a non-sway mode may be obtained from Figure 1.
Figure 1: Buckling length ratio Lcr / L for a column in a non-sway mode
(2) The buckling length Lcr of a column in a sway mode may be obtained from Figure 2.
Figure2: Buckling length ratio Lcr / L for a column in a sway mode
(3) For the theoretical models shown in Figure 3 the distribution factors η1 and η2 are obtained from:

where Kc is the column stiffness coefficient I / L and Kij is the effective beam stiffness coefficient.

(4) These models may be adapted to the design of continuous column, by assuming that each length of column is loaded to the same value ratio (N / Ncr). In the general case where (N / Ncr) varies, this leads to a conservative value of Lcr / L for the most critical length of column.
(5) For each length of a continuous column the assumption made in (4) may be introduced by using the model shown in Figure 4 and obtaining the distribution factors η1 and η2 from:

where K1 and K2 are the stiffness coefficients for the adjacent lengths of column.

(7) For building frames with concrete floor slabs, provided that the frame is of regular layout and the loading is uniform, it is normally sufficiently accurate to assume that the effective stiffness coefficients of the beams are as shown in Table 2.
