 Is it possible to see utility ratio just from stresses not based on stability design checks?

So you want to say that it depends on code that one use? I simply want comparison of sigma=N/A+M/Z with fy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I want to design connection based on beam utility ratio. So i don&amp;#39;t need stability check, i need stress utility.&lt;br /&gt;

For the Limit state design you can also see the utility ratio for strength and serviceability. Which design code you are using or asking for ?&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
