WHAT IS MEANT BY STABILITY?AND WHY CHECK STABILITY TEST METHOD IN THICKNESS SIDE?

Answer Posted / d.n.v.teja

stability of a member means maintaining the equilibrium
position even under the action of external force on a
member.stability of a column or a group of columns in a
structure can be obtained from calculating stability index
of a structure(as per IS 456).
Before or after application of load on a column it should
resist its own self weight or external loads which mainly
depends on its slenderness ratio(L/D).
as the slenderness ratio increases stability of column
decreases so stability test method is in thickness side.
