CFVR1072 - Seismic margin in structural steel check according to EC3-05
Case of compression and flexural Buckling.
A fixed steel beam subjected to a Fy load of -250 kN, a bending moment Mz of 50 m*kN and a bending moment Mx of -30 m*kN applied to an end of the beam.
The beam has a length of 10 m.
The cross section is a IPE 550.
The beam is made of Fe 460 steel which has a fy of 460000 kN/m2.
Member NOT susceptible to torsional deformations The aim of this example is to obtain the scale factor for permissible inelastic response (FSI) according to EN 1993-1-1:2005.
