Section 2
2-77
Cross-sectional properties of members are checked for
compliance with the following Sections:
• B1.1(a), Maximum Flat-Width-to-Thickness Ratios, and
• B1.2, Maximum Web Depth-to-Thickness Ratio
The program checks member strength in accordance with Chapter
C of the specification as follows:
1.
Tension Members.
Resistance is calculated in accordance with Section C2.
2.
Flexural Members.
a) C3.1, Strength for bending only:
• C3.1.1, Nominal Section Strength, Procedure I
• C3.1.2, Lateral Buckling Strength
b) C3.2, Strength for Shear Only
c) C3.3, Strength for Combined Bending and Shear
3.
Concentrically Loaded Compression Members.
a) C4.1, Sections not subject to Torsional or Torsional-Flexural
Buckling, and
b) C4.2, Doubly or Singly Symmetric sections subject to
Torsional or Torsional-Flexural Buckling.
4.
Combined Axial Load and Bending.
a) C5.1, Combined Tensile Axial Load and Bending, and
b) C5.2, Combined Compressive Axial Load and Bending.
