Design of Steel Columns: 

Angle Compactness
  • Check the compactness of an angle shape under uniform compression.
Rectangular HSS Compactness
  • Check the compactness of a rectangular HSS or box shape under uniform compression.
Round HSS Compactness
  • Check the compactness of a roung HSS or pipe under uniform compression.
I-Shapes and Channel Compactness
  • Check the compactness of an I-shape or channel section under uniform compression.
Non-slender Rolled Shape Compressive Strength
  • Calculate the compressive strength of a non-slender rolled shape other than angles.
Non-slender Torsional/Flexural-Torsional Buckling Compressive Strength
  • Calculate the torsional and flexural-torsional buckling compressive strength of a non-slender symmetric rolled shape. This calculation may control the design of wide flange and similarly shaped columns when the torsional unbraced length is larger than the lateral unbraced length.
Non-slender Angle Compressive Strength
  • Calculate the compressive strength of a non-slender steel angle.
Slender Unstiffened Rolled Shape Compressive Strength
  • Calculate the compressive strength of a slender unstiffened rolled shapes other than angles.
Slender Unstiffened Angle Compressive Strength
  • Calculate the compressive strength of a slender unstiffened single angle.
Combined Forces Strength
  • Check steel member subjected to a compression load and flexural loading around the weak and/or strong axis.
