Which consequence results when exceeding a column's slenderness ratio limit?

💡 Explanation

Exceeding the slenderness ratio increases buckling susceptibility because Euler's column formula dictates a lower critical load for slender columns; therefore buckling occurs readily, rather than the column crushing due to material yield strength alone.
