Rankine's Constant given Crippling Load Formula Elements

Variables
Rankine's Constant
Rankine's Constant is the constant of Rankine's empirical formula.
Symbol: α
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Column Crushing Stress
Column Crushing Stress is a special type of localized compressive stress which occurs at the surface of contact of two members that are relatively at rest.
Symbol: σc
Measurement: PressureUnit: MPa
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Column Cross Sectional Area
Column Cross Sectional Area is the area of a two-dimensional shape that is obtained when a three dimensional shape is sliced perpendicular to some specified axis at a point.
Symbol: A
Measurement: AreaUnit: mm²
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Crippling Load
Crippling Load is the load over which a column prefers to deform laterally rather than compressing itself.
Symbol: P
Measurement: ForceUnit: kN
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Least Radius of Gyration Column
Least Radius of Gyration Column is the smallest value of the radius of gyration is used for structural calculations.
Symbol: rleast
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Effective Column Length
Effective Column Length can be defined as the length of an equivalent pin-ended column having the same load-carrying capacity as the member under consideration.
Symbol: Leff
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
