Introduction
• In science, buckling is a mathematical instability that leads to a failure mode.
When a structure is subjected to compressive stress, buckling may occur. Buckling
is characterized by a sudden sideways deflection of a structural member.

Applications of Buckling Test
• Those material properties are determined by axial tension tests and axial
compression tests of short columns of the material. The geometry of such test
specimens has been standardized.
• Geometry enters the problem of determining material failure only indirectly as
the stresses are calculated by analytic or numerical methods.
• The buckling mode of deflection is considered a failure mode, and it generally
occurs before the axial compression stresses can cause failure of the material by
yielding or fracture of that compression member.
• The formula that gives the maximum axial load that a long, slender, ideal column
can carry without buckling
• A demonstration model illustrating the different "Euler" buckling modes. The model
shows how the boundary conditions affect the critical load of a slender column.
Notice that the columns are identical, apart from the boundary conditions
Buckling Testing Standards
• ASTM E9-89a (2000)
These test methods cover the apparatus, specimens, and procedure for axial load
compression testing of metallic materials at room temperature.
The values stated in inched-pound units are to be regarded as the standard
• ASTM E9 Compression Testing of Metallic Materials at Room Temperature.
Defines testing techniques for compression testing of metals.
