10C. DIMENSIONING PART 3/4

CHAPTER 10C 'DIMENSIONING' 24 is coloured in a corresponding colour: • Red if there is a failure and • Green if there is none. By double-clicking on this coloured icon, the following dialogue box appears with the summary results of the audit of the members. 1: In the first column is the number of the member, 2: In the second column is the cross-section, and 3-7: In the next 5 columns the worst strength ratio and the number of the combination from which this ratio was derived. Green are ratios below the unit and red are ratios above the unit. Where the phrase ' not required ' is shown, it means that the corresponding intensive magnitude was not available or that the axial force was tensile and not compressive. By selecting the button "Layer Bending" the program displays the summary results of the check in Bending (i.e. for each member the results from the worst combination) while by selecting the button "Investigation Layer Bending" the program displays a complete but very large file with the results of the checks for each member from all combinations. Similar applies to the "Functionality Issue" and "Investigate Layer Functionality" buttons. The check for the three types of buckling is carried out for each member and for all combinations. However, for each combination, i.e. for each triad N, My and Mz the checks are carried out 4 times based on the following combinations:
