Utilizing the RF-STEEL AISC add-on module, steel member design is possible according to the AISC 360-16 standard. The following article will compare the results between calculating lateral torsional buckling according to Chapter F and Eigenvalue Analysis.
In RF-STEEL Surfaces, it is possible to display the stresses relevant for the design of welds, for example, according to EN 1993‑1‑8, Figure 4.5. When evaluating the stress components, the local xyz-axis system of the surfaces must be considered.
