What is Euler Load?

The Euler Load (or Euler’s Critical Load) refers to the maximum axial load a slender column can bear before it buckles. It was derived by Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler and is a key concept in structural engineering when analyzing column stability. Buckling occurs when a column under compressive load becomes unstable and deflects laterally, potentially leading to failure even if the material hasn’t reached its compressive strength limit.

How to Calculate Length of Column given Euler Load?

Length of Column given Euler Load calculator uses Length of Column = sqrt(((pi^2)*Modulus of Elasticity of Column*Moment of Inertia)/(Euler Load)) to calculate the Length of Column, The Length of Column given Euler Load formula is defined as a measure of the maximum axial load that a long, slender column can support without buckling, taking into account the initial curvature of the column and its material properties, providing a critical value for structural engineers to ensure the stability of their designs. Length of Column is denoted by l symbol.

How to calculate Length of Column given Euler Load using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Length of Column given Euler Load, enter Modulus of Elasticity of Column (ε_column), Moment of Inertia (I) & Euler Load (P_E) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Length of Column given Euler Load calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1.7E+8 = sqrt(((pi^2)*9006*1.125)/(4000)).
