Q: The effective slenderness ratio of a battened columns, shall be taken as :
  • A. 1.1
  • B. 0.9
  • C. 0.65
  • D. 2.0
Correct Answer: Option A - IS 800-2007, Specifies the following rules for the design of battened columns– • Batten plates should be provided symmetrically. • At both ends batten plates should be provided. • The effective slenderness ratio of battened columns shall be taken as 1.1 times the maximum actual slenderness ratio of the column, to account for shear deformation.
