Load application point for determination of critical lateral-torsional buckling load

In the video we show the definition of eccentric member loading and its effect on the critical load factor for lateral torsional buckling. A load applied at the compressed flange will have a destabilizing effect in this case which is correctly considered in RFEM. We use the RFEM 6 Add-Ons Stability Analysis and Torsional Warping (7DOF).
