Verification of Steel Cross-Sections
The “Verification of Steel Cross-Sections” program performs verifications of steel cross-sections in the ultimate limit state. The verifications are based on Eurocode 3.
Only available in FRILO Ultimate
Performance characteristics
Material
- Structural steel S235, S275, S355, S450
- Annealed steel (S275N to S460N)
- Thermo-steel (S275M to S460M)
- Weathering steel (S235W to S355W)
- High-temperature steel (S460Q to S460QL1)
- Hollow section, hot-finished (S235H to S355H)
- Hollow section, hot-finished, fine-grain (S275NH to S460NH)
- User-defined steel
- Aluminium (extruded, drawn, sheeting, forged products and user-defined type)
Structural system
Cross-sections:
- I-sections
- U-sections
- T-sections
- Angle-sections
- C-sections
- square hollow sections
- rectangular hollow sections
- circular hollow sections
- round steel
- flat steel
- user-defined shapes
Loads
- Design internal forces from normal force, moment (My, Mz), primary and secondary torsional moment (MxI, MxII), warping moment (Mw) and shear force (Vy, Vz).
- Multiple combinations of design internal forces can be entered
Verifications
The cross-section is verified in the ultimate limit state as per DIN EN 1993-1-1, 6.2. According to DIN EN 1993-1-1, 5.5, the steel cross-section is classified in one of the cross-section classes 1 to 4 depending on the applying effects of actions and the c/t ratio of its cross-section parts under compression. The verification of the cross-section is determined by the classification. For the cross-section classes 1 to 3, the verification can optionally be based on Equation 6.1 (stress resistance verification) and Equation 6.2 (utilisation of plastic load-bearing capacities in accordance with the cross-section class). The verification for cross-section class 4 is performed using the effective cross-sectional properties.
