| A member subjected to compressive stress is
termed as post, strut or pillar. Main supporting
members of building are generally called columns
o pillars. The load carried by short column is P = p X A where, p is the intensity of stress and A is the area of cross-section of the column. A column that fails primarily due to direct stress is called a short column and the one that fails primarily due to the bending stress is called the long column.  | |
