Combined bending & shear capacity (Section) (Beams: AS 4100)

The combined bending & shear capacity check is performed according to AS 4100 clause 5.12.3, assuming bending is resisted by the whole of the cross-section, for the coincident major shear and moment about the x-x axis (Mx) and minor shear and moment about the y-y axis (My), at the point under consideration.

Note that if the (section) moment capacity is found to be less than the design moment then the combined bending & shear check will automatically be set as Fail.
