The Strength of Pillars – an Analysis
When a pillar is compressed endwise by a force gradually increased to the breaking point, it is reasonable to assume that at the intrados of the pillar at the point of greatest deflection a strain has been set up which is as great as the stress causing rupture in a specimen of the material, the height or vertical length of which specimen does not materially exceed its smallest diameter. Without entering upon the question of the magnitude of this excess, which has been variously estimated, it may be safely placed at that point where the strain generated by the element of bending becomes inappreciable, and it is probable that endwise compression is always accompanied with bending strains. The questions examined, however, in this paper are mainly, what is the maximum strain in pillars compressed endwise in the center of resistance by weights less than the breaking weights, or by weights not applied in the center of resistance.
