The Behavior of Column and Struts Apparatus is a fundamental experimental setup used in mechanical and civil engineering laboratories to study the buckling behavior of columns and struts under axial loading. It allows students and researchers to understand critical load conditions, end constraints, and the influence of slenderness ratio on structural stability.
To study the buckling behavior of columns and struts.
To compare the theoretical and experimental values of critical buckling load.
To analyze the effect of different end conditions on buckling.
To observe Euler’s buckling in slender columns under axial compression.
