Critical buckling load

The Euler column formula is stated as Pcr = tt2EI/L2 where Pcr is the critical buckling load.

The bending moment in service should not cause ribs put into compression, to buckle. If the rib was not connected to the plate, its critical buckling load could be calculated using Eq. (C.14) of Appendix C, with L set equal to the rib spacing W. However, as one side of the rib is supported by the plate, only the free side can buckle. FEA is necessary to predict the shape.

Since this stress is directed in the plane parallel to the beam axis, the beam becomes a column fixed at both ends. Applying the standard Euler equation, the critical buckling load (P ) and corresponding stress can now be computed (S r =Pcr /A). The Euler equation comprises several parameters E, L, I. Of these three, E is fixed, and L (distance between bolts) is usually fixed, (in most cases more bolts means additional costs). 7 is therefore the only possible variable. Adding one or more ribs will change I and substantially reduce the induced expansion load so that the beam will remain flat and free of distortion since the expansion stress is now much smaller than the critical stress.

Therefore, the assessment of He is based on the calculation of the critical buckling load for a pile foundation surrounded by liquefied soils (from which the pile caimot receive sufficient lateral support). Key parameters in Eq. 9 are cj), K, and a. Reasonable values of ( ) and K can be selected based on engineering judgment. 

The inequality constraints come from requiring the load to be less than the critical buckling load for the column. If...
