For long columns, slenderness ratio is greater than 100.

For shorter >20.

And for the medium between 20-100.

Below 80 short.
Above 80 long.
SR=l/k.

For short columns l/k ratio < 80, so we can consider it as medium column.

There are many variations in answers in different books but generally, S.R.<30(Short columns), S.R.- 30 TO 120 (Medium columns), & S.R.>120 (Long columns), so medium column should be correct Answer.
