What is Effective Length Factors for Cantilevers about?

This document compares the effective length factors for cantilevers under destabilizing loads between SCI publication P360 and BS 5950-1. It shows that the factors are identical but presented differently. P360 uses a simplified formula that accounts for support conditions and loads through the product of k and D factors. The document confirms the factors in P360 match those in BS 5950-1 and were adopted in design code EC3.
