Which outcome occurs when lateral wind loads exceed column's buckling resistance?

A)Accelerated neutral axis displacement
B)Material yield strength improves
C)Shear stress distribution stabilizes
D)Increased second moment of area

💡 Explanation

Increased wind load leads to Euler buckling, initiating accelerated neutral axis displacement within the supporting column because the critical load is surpassed. Therefore, structural collapse is more likely, rather than a stabilizing stress distribution or improved material properties.
