Column has length of 1.2 m and radius of gyration as 1.5m. Determine slenderness ratio. Consider column is fixed at one end free at other end.(a) 1.6(b) 7.8(c) 98(d) 12.45I had been asked this question by my school principal while I was bunking the class.My question is taken from Structural-Analysis Fundamentals in division Structures and Loads of Aircraft Design

Answer»

Right answer is (a) 1.6

The EXPLANATION: For, given column which is fixed at one END and free at other effective LENGTH L = 2*1.2m = 2.4m.

Now, SLENDERNESS ratio = effective length / radius of gyration = 2.4/1.5 = 1.6.
