OD = outside diameter, ID = inside diameter. csg = casing, DP = drill pipe, FG = fiberglass. Change in length or stretch = (load × length)/(modulus of elasticity × area). Values for critical column load are based on a distributed load (weight per foot) rather than a point load applied at the top of the column.
