Probable maximum moment at the plastic hinge location
|
Mpr |
Probable maximum moment at the plastic hinge |

Cpr |
Factor to account for peak connection strength (strain hardening) per AISC 358. Cpr = (Fy+Fu)/(2Fy) ≤ 1.2 |
|
Ry |
Ratio of expected yield stress to the specified minimum yield stress |
|
Fy |
Specified minimum yield stress |
|
Ze |
Effective plastic section modulus of section at the plastic hinge |
