    The paper points out the limitations of Galerkin's method in applications involving the optimal design of elastic beam columns which are acted upon simultaneously by axial compressive and transverse forces. This is illustrated by a few numerical examples, although similar limitations have been observed in many other cases, reported elsewhere.
