Effective lengths: L,,! = 1.0 L = 1.0 x 12000 = 12000mm for buckling about the y-y axis L,r,z= 1.0 L = 1.0 x 4000 = 4000mm for buckling about the z-z axis. Non-dimensional slendernesses:

Buckling curves. For major axis buckling, use buckling curve '6' For minor axis buckling, use buckling curve 'c'. Buckling reduction ,factors
