AB  - The present study focuses on the calculation of plates buckling load experimentally under uniaxial
pure compression load. To achieve this goal, first of all, a buckling test apparatus has been designed and
manufactured. The boundary conditions of the specimens are (Clamped-Clamped-Free-Free (CCFF)). Pure
compression load was applied on 1 side of plate and the other side is constrained at all degrees of freedom. Two
types of rectangular plates have been tested, namely 7075 aluminum alloy and low carbon steel with usual
aspect ratios (a/b = 1.5, 2 and 2.5) where (a) is the plate length and (b) is the plate width. The experimental
results were compared with the results of ANSYS Software for verification purpose. The results showed that
the buckling load for low carbon steel plates is larger than aluminum plates, also, the buckling load decreases
as the aspect ratio increases. The results showed a good agreement between experimental and numerical results
of ANSYS.
