    1) J. B. Johnson formula

    - J. B. Johnson formula is used for short and moderate columns.

    - If slenderness ratio ( Le / K) < X, then the column is short and J. B. Johnson formula is used.

    - X = √ ( 2π2 E / Syc )


    2) Euler's formula

    - If slenderness ratio ( Le / K) > X, then the column is long and Euler's formula is used.

    - Euler formula: Pcr = (π2 E A) / ( Le / K)2
