Maximum Load vs Column Width

Formule

Column Axial Load

P = A x Fc

Where A is the cross-sectional area and Fc is the allowable compressive stress. This applies to short columns where buckling is not a concern. For slender columns, the Euler buckling formula must be used to reduce the allowable load.

Exemple Résolu

6x6 wood column with 1,000 psi allowable stress.

  1. 01Area = 6 x 6 = 36 sq in
  2. 02Max load = 36 x 1000 = 36,000 lbs = 36 kips
  3. 03Note: actual lumber is 5.5 x 5.5 so use 30.25 sq in.

Questions Fréquentes

When is a column considered short vs slender?

For wood, if the slenderness ratio (Le/d) is less than about 11, it is a short column. Steel columns use KL/r; below about 40 is considered short. Slender columns require buckling analysis.

What is the actual size of a 6x6 post?

Nominal 6x6 lumber actually measures 5.5 x 5.5 inches. Always use the actual dimensions for structural calculations.
