Abstract
In conventional columns, the load carrying capacity is governed by the yield strength of the material and its buckling strength. The yield strength of the compression member is governed by the mechanical property of the material and its area of cross section while its elastic buckling strength depends on the least flexural stiffness (EI) ofthe cross section and its effective unsupported length. The elastic flexural buckling strength of a compression member is given by the well known Euler equation. In practice the strength of conventional compression members is less than bot.h the yield strength and Euler buckling strength due to the effects of imperfections, residual stresses etc.(Bjorhovde(1988)). In this paper behaviour of a novel patented concept, referred to as core loaded thin-walled sleeved column system, is discussed.
