Column Buckling
Flexural buckling is in general the buckling mode, which govern the design of
a member in pure compression. For this mode in a pinned column, the elastic
critical load Ncr, defined as the maximum load supported by the column, free
from any type of imperfections, is given by the well known Euler’s formula:

occur in other modes: torsional buckling or flexural-torsional buckling.

Lateral-Torsional Buckling

displacements and rotation about the member axis, under bending moment
about the major axis (y axis).

Lateral-Torsional Buckling
In the study of lateral-torsional buckling of beams, the Elastic Critical Moment Mcr
plays a fundamental role; this quantity is defined as the maximum value of bending
moment supported by a beam, free from any type of imperfections.
For a simple supported beam with a double symmetric section, with supports prevent
lateral displacements and rotation around member axis (twist rotations), but allowing
warping and rotations around cross section axis (y and z), submitted to a uniform
bending moment My (“standard case”), the elastic critical moment is given by:

Safety check of a beam of the building illustrated in the figure (along line E). The beam is composed by a
IPE 600 with 9 m length at the central span; the lateral spans with 6 m length (the governing spans) are
composed by a section IPE 400 in steel S 355. For the lateral buckling check, two cases are considered:
a) a beam with 6 m length, laterally braced only at the end support sections;
b) a beam with 6 m length, laterally braced at the end support sections and at mid-span section.
