Slenderness Coefficient

Slenderness Coefficient
λ = l0i
λ Slenderness coefficient
l0 Effective length = kcr ⋅ l
i Radius of gyration of the uncracked concrete section
kcr Effective length factor = 0.5 ⋅ √[(1 + k1 / (0.45 + k1)) ⋅ (1 + k2 / (0.45 + k2))] according to 5.8.3.2(3) Formula (5.15)
l Free length
k1, k2 Flexibility coefficients at both ends of the element
