← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when lateral wind load exceeds a column's engineered shear capacity in a high-rise?
A)Shear-induced buckling occurs✓
B)Torsional resonance increases
C)Vibration damping improves.
D)Material tensile strength rises
💡 Explanation
Shear-induced buckling results because excessive wind loads cause shear stresses that exceed column limits; this deformation causes instability. Therefore, buckling happens, rather than increased damping or improved strength, which require energy dissipation or enhanced microstructure respectfully.
