The critical load =(π^2xEI)/(KL)^2.
Given condition KL = L.

Fixed - fixed E.L = L\2.

Fixed - hinged E.L = L\1.414.

Hinged - hinged E.L= L.

Fixed - free E.L = 2L.

P = ((pi)^2 x EI)/(E.L)^2.

P = Crushing load.

Pi = 22/7.

E = Young's modulus.

I = Moment of inertia.

E.L = Effective length.

L = Unsupported length.

For any condition calculate on your own by this formula.
