Design method (Angles and tees: BS 5950)

The design method adopted is dictated by the member characteristic type:

  • “Beam”, “Truss member top” or “Truss member bottom” characteristic:
    • Member is designed for axial tension, compression, shear, bending and combined forces - consistent with the method detailed in Steel beam design to BS 5950
  • “Brace”, “Truss internal” or “Truss member side” characteristic:
    • Member is designed for axial tension, compression and compression buckling only - consistent with the method detailed in Steel brace design to BS 5950
Note: Additional Angle and tee limitations have to be considered when designing these sections to the above design methods.
