As per IS 456:2000, clause 25.1.1,
A column or struts is a compression member in which the effective length of column or struts exceeds three times the least lateral dimension.
i.e. Leff > (3 × Least Lateral Dimension)
A compression member may be considered as short when both the slenderness ratio \(L_{ex}\over D\) and \(L_{ey}\over b\) are less than 12.

Lex = effective length with respect to the major axis
D = depth with respect to the major axis
Ley = effective length with respect to the minor axis
b = width of the member
