1 General 1.1 Scope and field of application (101) Ultimate limit state analysis This standard specifies rules relating to ultimate limit state analysis of the buckling resistance of steel linear members and frames susceptible to loss of stability. It is to be used in conjunction with DIN 18800 Part 1.

(102) Serviceability limit state analysis Aserviceability limit state analysis need only be carried out if specifically required in the relevant standards. Note. Cf. subclause 7.2.3 of DIN 18 800 Part 1.

1.2 Concepts

(103) Buckling Buckling is a phenomenon in which displacement,v orw,of a member occurs, or rotation, 9, occurs about its major axis, or both occur in combination. A distinction is conventionally made between lateral buck- ling and lateral torsional buckling.

(104) Lateral buckling Lateral buckling is a phenomenon in which displacement,v or w, of a member occurs,or both occur in combination,any rotation, 9, about its major axis being neglected.

(105) Lateral torsional buckling Lateral torsional buckling is a phenomenon in which dis- placements, u and w, of a member occur in combination with rotation, 4, about its major axis, consideration of the latter being obligatory. Note. Torsional buckling, in which virtually no displace-

ments occur, is a special form of lateral torsional buckling.

1.3 Common notation (106) Coordinates, displacement parameters, internal

forces and moments, stresses and imperfections axis along the member (major axis) axis of cross section (In solid members, I, shall be not less than Iz.) displacement along axes x, y and z rotation about the x-axis initial bow imperfections in unloaded state initial sway imperfection of member or frame in unloaded state axial force (positive when compression) bending moments shear forces

Note 1. Where cross sections are non-uniform or axial forces variable, (E. I ) , NKi and SK shall be deter- mined for the point in the member for which the ulti- mate limit analysis is to be carried out. In case of doubt, an analysis shall be performed for more than one point (cf. item 316).

Note 2. The reference slenderness ratio, ila, for steel of thickness 40mm and less shall be as follows: 92,9 for ~t 37 where fy,k = 240 N/mm2, and 75,9 for St 52 where fy,k = 360 N/mm2.

Note 3. Calculations of in-plane slenderness ratios shall be made using as the values Of f y , ( E . 1). NKi and MKi asspecifiedinitems116and117eithertheircharac- teristic values or their design values throughout.

Note4. V K ~ shall beof thesame magnitude for all members making up a non-sway frame.

Note 5. Where cross sections are non-uniform or internal forces and moments variable, M K ~ shall be calculat- ed for the point for which the ultimate limit state analysis is carried out. In cases of doubt, an analysis shall be performed for more than one point.

(111) Partial safety factors YF partial safety factor for actions YM partial safety factor for resistance parameters Note. The values of YF and YM shall be taken from clause 7

of DIN 18800 Fart 1. Thus, the ultimate limit state analysis shall be carried out taking YM to be equal to 1,l both for the yield strength and for stiffnesses (e.g. E . T , E - A , G -AS and S).

1.4 Ultimate limit state analysis 1.4.1 General (112) Methods of analysis The analysis shall be take the form of one of the methods given in table 1, taking into account the following factors: - plastic capacity of materials (cf. item 113); - imperfections (cf. item 114 and clause 2); - internal forces and moments (cf. items 115 and 116); - the effects of deformations (cf. item 1 1 6); - slip (cf. item 118); - the structural contribution of cross sections (cf. item

1 1 9); - deductions in cross-sectional area for holes (ci. item

120). As a simplification, lateral buckling and lateral torsional buckling may be checked separately, first carrying out the analysis for lateral buckling and then that for lateral tor- sional buckling whereby, in the latter case, members shall be notionally singled out of the structural system and sub- jected to the internal forces and moments acting at the member ends (when considering the system as a whole) and to those acting on the member considered in isolation. Details on whether first or second order theory is to be applied are given together with the relevant method of analysis. The analyses described in clauses 3 to 7 may be used as an alternative to those listed in table 1.

Note 1. Details relating to elasto-plastic analysis are not provided in this standard (cf. [i]), though this is per- mitted in principle.

Note 2. In table 11 of DIN 18800 Part 1, the generic term ‘stresses’ is used instead of ‘internal forces and moments due to actions’.

Note 3. The conditions of restraint assumed when indi- vidual members are notionally singled out of the structural system shall be taken into account when verifying lateral torsional buckling.

Note 4. Simplified methods substituting those set out in clauses 3 and 4 are listed in table 2.

(11 3) Material requirements The materials used shall be of sufficient plastic capacity. Calculations may be based on assumptions of linear elas- tic-perfectly plastic stress-strain behaviour instead of actual behaviour. Note. The steel grades stated in sections 1 and 2 of item

401 of DIN 18800 Part 1 are of sufficient plastic capacity.

(1 14) Imperfections Reasonable assumptions (e.g. as outlined in clause 2) shall be made in order to take into account the effects of geometrical and structural imperfections. Note. Typical geometrical imperfections are accidental

load eccentricity and deviations from design geometry. Typical structural imperfections would be residual stresses.

(115) Internal forces and moments The internal forces and moments occurring at significant points in the members shall be calculated on the basis of the design actions. As a simplification, the index d has been omitted in the notation of internal forces and moments. Note. Subclauses 7.2.1 and 7.2.2 of DIN 18800 Part 1 spec-

ify rules for calculating design values of actions.

(116) Effects of structural deformations Calculations of internal forces and moments usually make allowance for deformation effects on equilibrium (accord- ing to second order theory), using as the design stiffness values the characteristic stiffnesses obtained by dividing the nominal characteristics of cross section and the char- acteristic elastic and shear moduli by a partial safety factor YM equal to 1,l. The effect of deformations resulting from stresses due to shear forces may normally be ignored.

Note 1. In calculations of internal forces and moments ac- cording to second order theory, for example, the member characteristic,s,and the distribution factor, ~ j - ~ i . shall be determined using the design stiffness,

Note 2. Reference shall be made to the criteria set out in item 739 of DIN 18 800 Part 1 when deciding whether to base calculations on second order theory.

Note 3. Deformations also occur as a result of joint ductil- ity.

Note 4. Deformations resulting from stresses due to shear forces shall be taken into account as specified in clause 4 for built-up compression members.

(117) Analysis on the basis of design actions multiplied by YM

As a departure from the specifications of items 115 and 11 6, internal forces and moments and deformations may also be calculated using the designvalues of actions multiplied bya partial safetyfactoryM of l,l,in which case the ultimate limit state analysis shall be carried out using the characteristic strengths and stiffnesses, substituting these (denoted by subscript k) for the design resistances (denoted by sub- script d) in the equations in clauses 3 to 7.

Note 1. Calculations of e and v ~ i shall be made, for example, using the characteristic stiffness, (E. I)k.

Note2. The alternative procedure set out in this item is especiallysuitable forthe global analyses described in clauses 5,6 and 7 but may also be used by analogy in clauses 3 and 4, giving the same results as would be obtained if yM were assigned to the resistance.To preclude the risk of confusion, it shall be stated explicitly in the analysis that this alternative proce- dure has been used.

Note 3. See subclause 7.3.1 of DIN 18800 Part 1 for resist- ance parameters.

(E * I)d.

(118) Slip Account shall be taken of slip in shear bolt or preloaded shear bolt connections in members and frames susceptible to loss of stability, using the values specified in item 813 of DIN 18800 Pari 1. Note. Due account shall be taken of slip if this greatly

increases the risk of loss of stability.

(119) Effective cross section If the full cross section of parts in compression is taken into consideration, their geometry shall be such that the grenz (blt) and grenz (dit) values specified in DIN 18 800 Part 1 are complied with. If,for thin-walled members,these values are not complied with, the analyses shall be of lateral buckling with coexistent plate buckling of individual members, or of lateral torsional buckling with coexistent plate buckling, as specified in clause 7 of DIN 18800 Part 3 or Part 4. Note 1. The grenz(blt) values differ according to the

method of analysis selected (see table 1).The grenz (blt) values for individual parts of plane cross sec- tionsare given in tables12,13,15and 18of DIN 18800 Part 1.

Note 2. The grenz (dlt) values for circular hollow sections are given in tables 14,15and 18 of DIN 18800 Pari 1. Methods of analyses of circular hollow sections the geometry of cross section of which does not comply with these limits are not covered in this standard.

(120) Deductions for holes Deductions for holes need not be made when determining internal forces and moments and deformations if it can be ruled out that premature local failure occurs as a result.

1.4.2 Ultimate limit state analysis by elastic theory (121) Analysis The loadbearing capacity may be deemed adequate if an analysis of the internal forces and moments according to elastic theory shows the structure to be in equilibrium and either one of the following applies.

DIN 18800 Part 2 Page 5

The failure criterion is not higher than the design yield strength, f y , d (elastic-elastic method), the specifica- tions of item 117 being applied by analogy. At isolated points, the failure criterion may be 10% higher than design yield strength (cf. item 749 of DIN 18800 Part 1). The internal forces and moments (taking due consider- ation of interaction) are within the limits specified for the perfectly plastic state (elastic-plastic method).

Note 1. See item 746 of DIN 18800 Part 1 for f y , d .

Note 2. The elastic-plastic method allows for plastification in cross sections with the possibility of plastic hinges with full torsional restraint at one or more pointS.This permits the plastic capacityof the cross sections to be fully utilized, but not that of the struc- ture.

Note 3. The analysis shall be made using interaction equa- tions (cf. tables 16 and 17 of DIN 18 800 Part l).

(122) Internal forces and moments in bi-axial bending Where bi-axial bending occurs with or without co-existent axial force but without torsion, the internal transverse forces and moments occurring may be determined by superimposing those internal forces due to actions which result in moments My and transverse forces V, and those resulting in moments M, and transverse forces V,. How- ever, calculation of E for the total axial force due to all actions is necessary in both cases.

(123) Limiting the plastic shape coefficient In cases where the plastic shape coefficient,apl,associated with an axis of bending is greater than 1,25 and the prin- ciples of first ordertheorycannot be applied,the resistance moment occurring as a result of Co-existent normal and transverse forces in a perfectly plastic member cross sec- tion shall be reduced bya factor equal to 1,25/aPl.The same principle shall be applied to each of the two moments in bi- axial bending if apl,y is greater than 1,25 or apl,z is greater than 1.25. Note. Instead of reducing the resistance moment, the

actual moment may be increased by a factor equal to api/1,25.

1.4.3 Ultimate limit state analysis by plastic hinge theory (124) The loadbearing capacitymay be deemed adequate if an analysis according to plastic hinge theory shows inter- nal forces and moments (taking into account interaction) to be within the limits specified for the perfectly plastic state (plastic-plastic method). This only applies if the structure is in equilibrium. Item 123 gives information on limiting the plastic shape coefficient. Note. Interaction equations are given in tables 16 and 17 of

DIN 18 800 Part 1.

2 Imperfections 2.1 General (201) Allowance for imperfections Allowance shall be made for the effects of geometrical and structural member frame imperfections if these result in higher stresses. For this purpose, equivalent geometrical imperfections shall be assumed, a distinction being made between initial bow (see subclause 2.2) and sway imperfections (see sub- clause 2.3). Note 1. Equivalent geometrical imperfections may, in turn,

be accounted for by assuming the corresponding equivalent loads.

Note 2. As well as geometrical imperfections, equivalent geometrical imperfections also cover the effect on the mean ultimate load of residual stresses as a result of rolling, welding and straightening proce- dures, material inhomogeneities and the spread of plastic zones. Other possible factors which may affect the ultimate load, such as ductility of fasten- ers, frame corners and foundations, or shear defor- mations are not covered.

In the elastic-elastic method, only two-thirds the values specified forthe equivalent imperfections in subclauses2.2 and 2.3 need be assumed. Ultimate limit state analyses of built-up members as specified in subclause 4.3 shall, however, always be made using the full bow imperfection stated in line 5 of table 3. Note 1. A reduction by one-third takes account of the fact

that the plastic capacity of the cross section is not fully utilized. The aim is to achieve on average the same mean ultimate loads when applying both the elastic-elastic and the elastic-plastic methods.

Note 2. The analyses set out in subclause 4.3 are based on comparisons of ultimate loads obtained empirically or by calculation, which also justify the value of bow imperfection stated in line 5 of table 3 (cf. Note under item 402).

The equivalent imperfections are already included in the simplified analyses described in clauses 3 and 7.

(202) Equivalent imperfections The equivalent geometrical imperfections, assumed to occur in the least favourable direction, shall be such that they are optimally suited to the deformation mode asso- ciated with the lowest eigenvalue. The equivalent imperfections need not be compatible with the conditions of restraint of the structure. Where lateral buckling occurs as a result of bending about only one axis with coexistent axial force, bow imperfections need only be assumed with DO or WO in each direction in which buckling will occur. Where lateral buckling occurs as a result of biaxial bending with coexistent axial force, equivalent imperfections need only be assumed for the direction in which buckling will occur with the member in axial compression. In the case of lateral torsional buckling, a bow imperfection equal to 0,5 DO (cf. table 3) may be assumed.

(203) Imperfections in special applications Where provisions for special applications are made in other relevant standards,with specifications deviating from those given in this standard, such specifications shall form the basis of the global analysis. Note. Imperfections relating to special applications are

not covered in clauses 3 to 7.

2.2 Bow imperfections (204) Individual members, members making up non-sway frames and members as specified in item 207, shall gen- erally be assumed to have the initial bow imperfections given in figure 2 and table 3.

Figure 4. Assumptions for bow imperfections (examples)

2.3 Sway imperfections (205) Assumptions Sway imperfections as in figure 5 shall be assumed to occur in members or frames which may be liable to torsion after deformation and which are in compression.

In the above figure, L or L, is the length of the member or frame, and ppo or ~ 0 , ~ . the sway imperfection of the member or frame.

Figure 5. Ideal member or frame (chain thin line) and member or frame with initial sway imperfection (continuous thick line)

Initial sway imperfections shall generally be calculated as follows (cf. item 730 of DIN 18800 Part 1): a) solid members:

1 po = - r1 r2

200

b) built-up members as in figures 20 and 21 and sub- clause 4.3:

(2) 1

po = - r l . r2 400 where

r1 = is a reduction factor applied to mem- bers or frames, where 1, the length of the member, L, or frame, L,, having the most adverse effect on the stress under consideration, is greater than 5 m;

r 2 = 1 ( í + t ) is a reduction factor allowing for IZ independent causes of sway imper- fection of members or frames.

2

Calculations of 12 for frames may generally assume n to be the number of columns per storey in the plane under con- sideration. Not included are columns subjected to minor axial forces, ¡.e. with less than 25Oío of the axial force acting in the column submitted to maximum load in the same storey and plane. Note 1. Since, in calculations of shear in multictorey

frames, initial sway imperfections are assumed to have the most adverse effect in the storey under consideration, the storey height, ¡.e. the total length of columns,L, shall be substituted for the length of the column in that storey for calculation of Il. In the other storeys, the height of the structure,L,, may be substituted for I (cf. figure 6).

Note 2. Allowance for sway imperfections may also be made by assuming equivalent horizontal forces.

In this method, the design of each component shall be based on the global analysisofthe total internal forces and moments present (see subclauses 4.3.2 and 4.3.3). Note. Frames may also be analysed on the basis of all of

their components. Analysis by the equivalent mem- ber method assuming solid members is specified for battened members with two chords. The literature shall be referred to for information on members with more than two chords [91.

This also applies for closely spaced built-up battened members as shown in figures 19,20and 21.The moments in the centroids of batten connections shall be taken into account. If packing plates are used to connect the main components in built-up battened members as shown in figures 19 and 21, it is sufficient to design the connection for resistance to the actual shear.

4.4 Closely spaced built-up battened members (410) Cross sections with one void axis Built-up members with cross sections as shown in figure 19 may also be treated as solid members as set out in clause 3 when calculating lateral displacement normal to the void axis, provided that either of the following conditions is satis- fied: a) battens or packing plates positioned as specified in

subclause 4.5 are not more than 15 i, apart; b) continuous packing plates are used,which are connect-

ed at intervals equal to 15 il or less apart.

Figure 19. Built-up memebers with a void axis and a clear spacing of main components not oronlyslightly greater than the thickness of the gusset

Continuity of packing may be taken into consideration when calculating the second order moment of area. When determining the area of cross section,A, this only applies when the packing is adequately connected to the gusset.

The shear in the battens, connections or packing may be calculated fora transverse force equalling 2.5% of the com- pressive force in the battened member.

(41 1) Star-battened angle members Built-up members. consisting of two star-battened angle members need only be checked for lateral displacement perpendicular to the.material axis (figure 20) by the follow- ing equation:

(39)

If the effective lengths of the two members are not the same, the mean of the two effective lengths shall be used.

Angles with a cross section as shown in figure 20 b) may be verified by the following equation, the radius of gyration, io, of the gross cross section relating to the centroidal axis parallel to the longer leg:

Consecutive battens may be in corresponding or mutually opposed order. Shear may be determined as specified in item 410.

Note. According to item 503, the effective lengths of diag- onals or verticals in triangulated frames differ, de- pending on whether lateral displacement in or per- pendicular to the plane of the frame is being consid- ered.

(412) Cross sections with two void axes Where built-up members as shown in figure 21 consist of main components with a clear spacing not or only slightly greater than the thickness of the gusset,the specifications applying to the built-up members in figure 19 shall be applied by analogy to the two void axes.

If built-up members are connected at the same gusset,due account shall be taken of the fact that the gusset will also function as an end batten or end packing plate. The other battens shall be spaced as equally apart as pos- sible, the use of packing plates being permitted instead for the members shown in figures 19 and 21. The number of panels shall be not less than three, and equation (41) shall be satisfied:

Where the cross sections of compression chords are non- uniform over their length,any load eccentricity in individual members may be disregarded if the mean centroidal axis of each cross section coincides with the centroidal axis of the compression chord.

5.1.2.1 General (503) Rigidly connected members In the absence of a more rigorous treatment, the effective length, SK, of frame members which are rigidly connected using at least two bolts or by welding shall be 0.9 I for in- plane buckling (42) and equal to unity for out-of-plane buckling (43).

(504) Non-rigidly connected members In the absence of a more rigorous treatment, the analysis for the sway mode of vertical and diagonal members held horizontally by cross beams or transverse members provid- ing non-rigid connection, is a function of the structural detailing involved.

By a simplified method, equation (47) need only be applied to the lowest storey if the stiffness conditions there are not considerably different from those of the other storeys. Note. Examples of stiffening elements are wall panels and

5.2.3 Design of bracing systems (514) Principle Bracing systems shall be designed by second order theory assuming all horizontal loads and uplift due to imperfec- tions for both stiffening system and frame.

(515) Imperfections Initial sway imperfections, qo, as specified in subclause 2.3 shall be assumed forall columns of frames and the bracing system.

(516) Calculation by first order theory In the global analysis by elastic theory,first ordertheory may be applied provided that each storey meets equation (49):

SAusst, d

N (49)

where SAusst,d is the total stiffness of all frame bracing systems in

the storey under consideration; N is the total vertical load transmitted in the storey

under consideration.

If equation (49) is not met, the bracing system design shall be based on the transverse force calculated by second order theory. A simpler method may also be used,in which the transverse force according to first order theory (including any uplift, N -PO) is multiplied by the factor a obtained by means of equation (50).

Note. The following general case applies to bracing systems:

NKi, d = SAusst, d

5.2.4 Analysis of frames and continuous beams (517) The ultimate limit state analysis of frames and con- tinuous beams may be effected by analysing their main components as specified in clause 3. In the analysis of lateral buckling of non-sway frames as specified in subclause 3.4.2.2, the moment factor,&,for lat- eral buckling, taken from column 2 of table 11 may be used to calculate the moment components from transverse loads on beams. When analysing beams by means of equation (26), the maximum bending moment may be reduced by multiplying by the factor (1 -0,8/q~i) provided there are no (or virtually no) compressive forces acting in them. Note. The effective lengths required for the above check

are given in figure 27. Practical examples are given in [ll].

5.3 Sway frames and continuous beams subject to lateral displacement

5.3.1 Negligible deformations due to axial force

(516) Item 51 1 shall apply in the cases where the deforma- tions due to axial force are negligible.

5.3.2 Plane sway frames Note. The use of bolts or welding for unstiffened beam-to-

column connections requires due consideration of their structural behaviour and susceptibility to deformations, ¡.e. their plastic design capacity com- bined with their rotation capacityand theirdeforma- tions under service loads.

5.3.2.1 Calculation by first order elastic theory (519) Global analysis of beam-and-column type frames (regardless of the number of storeys or panels) which are pinned or rigidly connected at their base, with columns of equal length within a storey and nodes permitting only lateral displacement, may be designed by first order theory, provided that each storey meets equation (51).

N, being the sum of all vertical loads transmitted in the rth storey.

In the above, the stiffness S, shall be obtained by means of equations (52) to (54), using the notation and values given in figure 28. In the first storey (where r =l), S, shall be as follows, de- pending on the conditions of restraint at the column bases: rigidly connected:

VF is the transverse force from external horizontal loads in the r th storey;

p, is the associated angle of rotation in the r th storey, obtained by first order theory.

Note 1. In first order theory, the reduced initial sway im- perfections p~ specified in items 729 and 730 of DIN 18800 Part 1 shall be taken into account.

Note 2. Alternatively, q K i , r may be determined with the aid of figure 29. N K i , r , d assumed as being equal to S,d/1,2 gives a conservative estimation of the design bifurcation load; examples are given in [ll].

5.3.2.2 Simplified method applying second order theory (520) Method Calculations shall be as in first order theory but assuming an increased transverse force in the storeys as set out in item 521 or 522.

(521) Transverse force in beam-and-column type frames Where the member characteristic, E, of beam-and-column type frames is less than 1,6, higher transverse forces in the storey, V,, shall be used, to be obtained by means of equation (56).

(56) where VF is the transverse force in the storey due to external

horizontal loads only; N , is the total vertical load transmitted within the r th

storey; 00 is the initial sway imperfection as specified in sub-

clause 2.3; pr is theangleofrotation ofthecolumnsintherth storey

(calculated by the simplified second order theory method).

Note. When applying initial sway imperfections at the base or top of columns, the angles of rotation, Q, (see figure 30), being unknown, the simplified second order method gives an only slightly different result than the first order method, the additional term 1,2 pr + N , giving a decrease in the principal diagonal terms, and po N , an increase in the load terms, of the equilibrium equations. Thus calculations are onlyslightly more complex than by first ordertheory.

(522) Approximate calculation of transverse force in beam-and-column type frames

5.3.2.3 Analysis by equivalent member method (523) Global method The ultimate limit state analysis for sway frames may be car- ried out byanalysing each member separately,as specified in clause 3, but using the effective length of the system as a whole. Where, in certain cases, the compressive forces acting on the frame are liable to change direction during buckling, this shall be taken into account when calculating the effec- tive lengths of members. Note. Effective lengths may be determined using figure 29,

or using figures 36 to 38 in cases where compres- sive forces are liable to change direction.

(524) Cross sections not in compression Analysis by means of equation (26) for cross sections not in compression need only be made for beams in sway frames where Mpl of ihe beam is less than the total Mpl of the columns meeting the beams.

(525) Systems with nominally pinned columns In global analysis by first order theory, sway systems includ- ing nominally pinned columns shall be calculated with an additional equivalent load, VO (obtained by means of equa- tion (59) and illustrated in figure 30), in order to take into account initial sway imperfections.

(59) where p0,i is as specified in item 205.

VO = 1 (Pi . p0.i)

VO = XPi V0.i 90 from figure 5.

Figure 30. Systems including nominally pinned columns: additional transverse force in a storey, VO

Note. The initial sway imperfections as specified in items 729 and 730 of DIN 18800 Part 1 need not be assumed in addition to VO.

5.3.2.4 Analysis applying first order plastic hinge theory (526) Beam-and-column type frames Beam-and-column type frames as specified in subclauses 5.3.2.1, with columns having no or virtually no plastic hinge action at their ends, may be analysed according to first order plastic hinge theory provided that initial sway imper- fections from subclause 2.3 are assumed and the columns in each storey satisfy equation (60).

5.3.2.5 Simplified calculation according to second order plastic hinge theory

6.3 Design loading of arches (611) The ultimate limit state analysis shall normally be made by the elastic-elastic method, assuming feasible equivalent geometrical imperfections in addition to the design loads. In the absence of lateral restraint of arches between springings, the equivalent imperfections may be taken from table 23 or 24.k is sufficient to assume imper- fections acting in a single (i.e.the most unfavourable) direc- tion, either in or perpendicular to the plane of the arch. Where there is transfer of loads via hangers or columns, it shall be assumed that these retain their design direction in the state of deformation. Note. Design loading plays a significant role in arches

exposed to outdoor conditions due to the possible effect of wind acting transverse to the arch plane. In this case, the loading conditions set out in sub- clauses 6.1 and 6.2 are not met.

7 Straight linear members with plane thin-walled parts of cross section

7.1 General (701) Field of application This clause shall apply in cases where the grenz (bit) values for individual parts of a cross section are exceeded, which then requires the effect of plate buckling of such parts on the buckling behaviour of the member as a whole to be taken into account when calculating both internal forces and moments and resistances. Note 1. The grenz (bl t ) values shall be taken from tables 12,

13 and 15 of DIN 18800 Part 1. Note 2. Plate buckling of individual parts of a cross section

usually affects the buckling behaviour of the member

b C d

as a whole by causing a reduction in its stiffness and a redistribution of stresses within a cross section to parts exhibiting greater stiffness or less subject to stress.

(702) Analysis The ultimate limit state analysis shall be by the elastic- elastic or elastic-plastic method. The analysis may take the form of the approximate methods set out in subclauses 7.2 to 7.6. Note 1. The application of plastic hinge theorywill not be

possible until its viability is given sufficient practical backing.

Note 2. In subclauses7.2 to7.6,the effect of buckling ofthe individual parts of cross section on member buck- ling as a whole is taken into account.

(703) Effect of shear stresses In cases where subclauses 7.2 to 7.6 are applied, shear stresses when analysing plate buckling of thin-walled parts of cross section are so minor that they can be disregarded, ¡.e. if they meet the following conditions:

'pi,d is the ideal buckling stress in plates due solely to edge stresses t, to be determined as specified in DIN 18800 Part 3.

If equations (79) and (80) are not met, allowance for the additional effect of shear stresses may be made as set out in DIN 18 800 Part 3. This does not affect the necessity of also taking into account the overall reduction in stiffness of the member.

(704) Permitted sections The provisions of subclauses 7.2 to 7.6 shall only apply to members of uniform cross section taking the following forms: hollow rectangular sections, doubly symmetric or monosymmetric I sections, channels, C sections,Zsections and trapezoidal hollow ribs.

Note. Hollow sections are considered rectangular where blr is not less than 5 (cf. figure 40). Circular cross sections and T sections are not dealt with.

7.2 General rules relating to calculations (705) Effective cross section (model) In a model of the effective cross section,an effective width, b'(cf.figure 40) orb', issubstitutedfortheactualwidth,b,of the thin-walled part of the cross section.

Note 1. Thus, all cross section properties of the effective cross section require to be determined.

Note 2. Provisions for the calculation of b’ orb” are made in subclauses 7.3 (elastic-elastic method) and 7.4 (elastic-plastic method). Accordingly, cross section properties A’, I’, etc. are assigned to b’, and A”, I“ to b”. Figure 40 b) shows a reduced cross section in elastic-elastic analysis, this applying by analogy for elastic-plastic analysis.

Note 3. The methods of analysis set out in subclauses 3.2 to 3.5 also apply in principle to members with effec- tive cross sections, subject to the modifications specified in subclauses 7.5 and 7.6.

(706) Approximate methods The effective cross section is obtained by reducing the zone of tensile bending. If the cross section is not symmetrical about the bending axis and both positive and negative bending moments occur, the governing bending moment shall be that resulting in the smaller effective second order moment of area.This moment shall be assumed to be con- stant over the length of the member. Note 1. If the reduced zone of tensile bending is used, the

compressive stress, UD, may be conservatively approximated to fy,k/YM. Iteration may be avoided

’ by also making a conservative approximation of the edge stress ratio, y.

Note 2. The zone of tensile bending is not reduced using this approximate method, even though compressive stresses may occur. This approximate method is elaborated in the literature [cf.l6],with the inclusion of practical examples.

(707) Analysis of cross section The analyses shall be of the effective cross section. The reduction in cross section shall be in correlation with the direction of the actual bending moment in the bending compression zone of the member after deformation.

Note. In the absence of a design bending moment, the bending moment as a result of bow imperfections shall be used. It may prove necessary to examine both directions in the case of monosymmetric cross sections.

(708) Centroidal shift as a result of reduction in cross section

The effect of a shift, e, of the centroid in the transition from the gross (¡.e. actual) to the effective cross section shall be taken into account. For convenience, this may be done as specified in items 709 and 710.

(709) Increase in bow imperfection Where members are to be assumed with an initial bow imperfection, wo, this shall be increased by AWO from table 25. For a cross section symmetrical about the axis of bending, and assuming that a compressive stress, OD, due to the positive moment and the negative moment are of equal magnitude, ep, e, and e may also be taken to be equal.

Note. The diagrams shown in table 25 are onlyexamples of moments. Of significance is the occurrence of posi- tive and negative moments.

result of this increase in sway imperfection when the equivalent member method is applied.

7.3 Effective width in elastic-elastic method (711) Stress distribution In the elastic-elastic method, calculations shall be on the basis of a linear stress distribution in the effective cross section.

Note. This is an assumption only,and is not based on actual fact since the actual stress distribution is non-linear.

(712) Determining the effective width The effective width shall be determined by means of equa- tion (81) for cases in which plates (web or flange) are sup- ported on both sides with constant compression and equa- tion (82) for support on only one side. The assumption of support on both sides presupposes that the supporting construction is of adequate stiffness.
