A compression member is a general class of structural elements of which a Column is the most common specific example. DESCRIPTION The loading capacity of a short column is determined by strength limit of the material. The strength of a column of intermediate size is limited by its degree of inelasticity. A long column is constrained by the elastic limit (that is by Euler's Formula ). SEE ALSO
