← TechnologyWhich mechanism reduces column buckling risk from eccentric loading?
A)Increased Radius of Gyration✓
B)Decreased Slenderness Ratio
C)Reduced End Restraint Stiffness
D)Lowered Shear Modulus of Steel
💡 Explanation
Increased Radius of Gyration improves resistance to buckling because it increases the column's cross-sectional area's distribution away from the centroid. Therefore, buckling is less likely under eccentric load rather than reduced slenderness ratio, which only impacts plane buckling.
