Wieland Götzler Add-on Modules STEEL EC3 RF-STEEL EC3 Steel Structures Structural Analysis & Design Stability Analysis Stress Analysis Eurocode 3

I would like a stair railing, for which I have created a set of rods, measured. The profile is a hollow profile. Can the proof of stability of the whole system be made for this purpose, or do I have to transfer this to all stock in STAHL EC3 in a replacement bill?

Answer

For a vault-free cross-section, a proof of the complete system is recommended using theory II. Order - internal forces and local imperfections. The entry of the effective lengths and nodal bearings (with staff sets) can thus be omitted. However, please activate gamma_M1 for cross-section verification.
