This model explains the cross-section classification according to EN 1993-1-1, Table 5.2, used to assess local buckling. The cross-sections of Class 4 require the calculation of efficient cross-section properties according to EN 1993-1-5. The model shows how the influence of local buckling is taken into account in the ultimate limit state design. This improves the understanding of compression stresses in hinged columns by integrating Annex E on efficient width.
