Columns in simple construction

Columns in simple construction.jpg

This design software may be used to verify columns in ��simple construction�� �C

subject to axial loads and nominal moments from eccentric beam reactions assumed to
be 100 mm from the face of the column. The tool covers beams (UKB) and columns
(UKC) in S275 and S355 steel. The verification follows the guidance in NCCI:
SN048b-EN-GB Verification of columns in simple construction - a simplified
interaction criterion.. The scope excludes the verification of class 4 sections.
The user must select the steel grade, member type, section size and column length.
The tool provides the opportunity to input an axial force (from above), and the
design values of the reactions on each face of the column at both ends of the
column - these reactions are used to calculate the bending moments in the major and
minor axis.
