• Why IS Code 800-2007 LSD fails Ratio INFINITY, while AISC 360-10 ASD passed Beam with Ratio 0.44? Taper beam

    1) Design check by IS Code 800-2007 LSD fails gives result of Bending Ratio = “INFINITY”, which passes with AISC 360-10 ASD Ratio 0.44! Also IS 800 code output does not give any ratio in both major, minor axis! 2) Is this 12 mm Flange thickness is critical…
  • Inter Cross Section Slope Limit on flanges

    In checking a model recently, I found that the inter cross section slope limit does not appear to apply to the flanges of a T or L section. Is there any particular reason that slope limit should not be applied to T or L flanges the same as its applied…
