KB 000956 | Support Conditions for Lateral-Torsional Buckling

A member's boundary conditions decisively influence the elastic critical moment for lateral-torsional buckling Mcr. In the program, a planar member model with four degrees of freedom is created for its determination. The corresponding coefficients kz and kw can be adjusted to represent frequently used cases. In this way, it is possible to describe the degrees of freedom arising from the support conditions at the member ends to be taken into account in the stability analysis for lateral-torsional buckling.
