Question

The strength of compression members subjected to axial compression is defined by curves corresponding to _______ classes.

The correct answer is

a, b, c and d

Design codes provide tables or rules to assign the correct buckling curve (and hence class) to a specific compression member based on its shape (e.g., I-section, H-section, hollow section), dimensions, and the axis of buckling. Therefore, the correct answer is a, b, c and d.
