A stanchion is a structural steel member, usually larger than a strut or a column whose main function is to withstand axial compressive stresses. e.g. an upright metal post on a ship.
The slenderness ratio is the ratio of the length of the member to the radius of gyration of the cross-section.
Calculation:
Slenderness ratio (SR) = l/r,
Where
l = effective length of the column and r = minimum radius of gyration
Slenderness ratio (SR) = 4 m/5 cm = 400 cm/5 cm = 80Last updated on Jul 1, 2025
