HOT-ROLLED MEMBER CHECKER

BEAM-COLUMN CHECKS TO US, AUSTRALIAN AND EUROPEAN CODES

The Hot-Rolled Member Checker checks hot-rolled steel members for combined axial load and bending to AISC 360-16, AS 4100 and EN 1993-1-1.

Complex resilient channel cold-formed steel section fabricated using Scottsdale K35C roll forming machine.

L_x · x-axis buckling length

unbraced length for strong-axis flex. buckling

L_y · y-axis buckling length

unbraced length for weak-axis flex. buckling

L_t · torsional buckling length

unbraced length for E4 torsional buckling

L_b · LTB unbraced length

for F2 lateral-torsional buckling

K_x

eff. length factor, x-axis

−

K_y

eff. length factor, y-axis

−

K_t

eff. length factor, torsion

−

C_b · LTB modifier

1.0 conservative

−

P-δ Amplification (App. 8)

Apply B₁ amplifier

uncheck if M_u already includes P-δ
