← TechnologyWhich consequence results when exceeding a column's slenderness ratio limit?
A)Decreased torsional vibration potential
B)Increased global buckling susceptibility✓
C)Enhanced material yielding strength
D)Reduced composite action effectiveness
💡 Explanation
Exceeding the slenderness ratio increases buckling susceptibility because Euler's column formula dictates a lower critical load for slender columns; therefore buckling occurs readily, rather than the column crushing due to material yield strength alone.
