Abstract
Pultruted composite structural members with open or closed thin-walled sections are being used as columns for structural applications where buckling is the main consideration in the design. An analytical model for Euler buckling is developed herein. Failure envelopes for some com mercially available structural shapes are presented. The analytical mo del presented can be used to predict the behavior of any new material.
