Abstract
The objective of ECSS E-HB-32-24, the handbook titled Buckling of Structures, is to merge the information necessary for proper evaluation of buckling loads, including the robustness of this evaluation and the related margins, both for structures and for structural elements of space systems. An outline of the handbook, with a synopsis of each section, is presented herein. The so-called "Public Review" of the handbook is presently foreseen in the second half of 2009, with the aim of raising formal comments from the aerospace community to be later on processed by the E-HB-32-24 Working Group. The Public Review will be conducted via the ECSS Book Shelf, which is the electronic repository for the ECSS nonnormative documentation. The ECSS Book Shelf is a wiki, i.e. a collection of web pages designed to enable anyone who accesses it to contribute or modify content, using a simplified markup language. Comments on the proposed handbook are solicited from the scientific community and industry.
