Which risk increases when reinforced concrete column experiences sustained compressive load exceeding critical buckling load?

💡 Explanation

When compressive load exceeds the critical buckling load, lateral deflection increases causing tensile stress in the hoops, potentially leading to hoop rupture and concrete spalling. Therefore hoop rupture and spalling occur, rather than corrosion affecting rebar directly or shear due to compression dominant load.
