Clamping the unloaded edges of a long plate raises its buckling coefficient from about \( 4 \) to about \( 7 \). The buckling stress rises by a factor of

  • A.3.0
  • B.1.32
  • C.2.0
  • D.1.75

Answer: D

The stress is directly proportional to the coefficient, so the factor is \( 7/4 = 1.75 \). Real riveted edges provide partial restraint and fall between the simply supported and clamped ideals, so an intermediate value is normally assumed.
