This Bulletin includes a commentary on the buckling rules proposed in WRC Bulletin 406, as an alternative to the present buckling rules of the ASME Code. The proposed rules were used to develop the rules of ASME Code Case 2286 and are intended to be eventually incorporated in the ASME Code. This commentary provides the basis for the rules proposed in Bulletin 406. It also points out the limitations of these rules. Comparisons are provided between the proposed rules and test results. The basis for the interaction rules of the alternative rules are also provided and compared with failure theories.
