Safety Coefficients
Structural steel Structural concrete:
Corrosion conditions
EN 10025, the steel is used unprotected (without improved atmospheric corrosion resistance).
Conventions
Tension is considered positive (compression is considered negative).
Bending moment is considered positive if clockwise (in above elevation).
Strong axis of the profile is considered "y-y" and weak axis "z-z".
Application domain:
The joint members are "I" or "H" construction steel profiles.
The height of the profiles (without haunches) does not exceed 600 mm.
On the plates, there are two vertical bolt rows.
4 Compression verifications
4.1 Compression resistance of the beam

Beam cross section design bending moment resistance reduced if necessary, to allow for shear force. Its formula is
shown below.
The profile is class 1, so the moment resistance of the section is calculated using the plastic modulus:

EN 1993-1-8 6.2.6.1(1)
The column web slenderness satisfies the condition given in EN 1993-1-8 6.2.6.1(2), so the web panel in shear
resistance will be calculated following the design methods provided in 6.2.6.1(2) to 6.2.6.1(14).

The column web panel in shear resistance for a stiffened column is the sum of the column web panel in shear for the
unstiffened column and the stiffener resistance, EN 1993-1-8 6.2.6.1(2):
