Which elevated stress increases in a steel column with inadequate lateral bracing?

💡 Explanation

Increased effective length raises stress because Euler buckling is inversely proportional to the square of the effective length resulting in lower critical load, therefore buckling susceptibility becomes significant, rather than other effects relating to material properties.
