Type of strut mounting

Values for calculation

$β$
$S_{y}$ $\mathrm{MPa}$
$E$ $\mathrm{MPa}$
$F$ $\mathrm{N}$
$L$ $\mathrm{mm}$
$S$ $\mathrm{mm^2}$
$I$ $\mathrm{mm^4}$
$c$ $\mathrm{mm}$
$e$ $\mathrm{mm}$
$C_c$
$S_F$

Calculation

Gyration radius

$$i=\sqrt{\cfrac{I}{S}}$$

Slenderness ratio

$$λ=\cfrac{L\cdot β}{i}$$

Eccentricity parameter

$$η=\cfrac{e\cdot c}{i^2}$$

$$η\geq 0.25$$

Maximal (critical) force

$\text{if }\ λ>0.282\cdot\sqrt{\cfrac{E\cdot S}{F}}$
$$F_{max}=S_{y}\cdot S/ \left[1+η\cdot\sec\left(\cfrac{λ}{2}\cdot\sqrt{\cfrac{\left|F_{max}\right|}{E\cdot S}}\right)\right]$$
$\text{else}$
$$F_{max}=S_{y}\cdot S/ \left[1+η\right]$$

$$\cfrac{F_{max}}{S_F}\cdot C_c\geq F$$
