A Stramit C-section will be used as a column and a beam. The C-section properties are provided in the Figure. The yield stress is 450MPa. The dimensions are outside dimensions. The internal corner radii are 5mm.
Calculate the design capacity for both the column and the beam using the Direct Strength Method for the following two situations:
a) Both the column and the beam are fully restrained from member lateral, flexural and/or torsional buckling (Nce= Ny and Mbe = My)
b) Nce=0.5Ny and Mbe =0.5My
