KB 000565 | Consideration of Net Cross-Section for Tensile Stress According to EN 1993-1-1

When connecting tensile stresses structural components with bolted connections, it is necessary to consider the cross-section reduction due to the bolt holes in the ultimate limit state design. The following article describes how is it possible to perform the tension resistance design according to EN 1993‑1‑1 with the net cross-section area of a tension member in the RF‑/STEEL EC3 add-on module.
