Bending resistance

The bending resistance is calculated for classes 1 and 2 using following formula

Where is:

Wpl,y, Wpl,z

  • The plastic section moduli for axes y and z

The minimum of the values Mc,Rd,y and Mc,Rd,y,osl or Mc,Rd,z and Mc,Rd,z,osl is used in the verification.

The design value of the resistance is reduced for "High shear" (described in the chapter "Low and high shear").

Where is:

iWpl,y,red, iWpl,z,red

  • The reduced plastic section moduli for axes y and z

  • The yield strength

γM0

  • The partial safety factor

The reduced plastic section moduli are calculated as plastic section moduli with reduced capacity in walls that are subjected to "high shear". The reduction is based on the factors ρz and ρy that are calculated in accordance with the chapter "Low and high shear". The minimum of the values Mc,Rd,y and Mc,Rd,y,red or Mc,Rd,z and Mc,Rd,z,red is used in the verification.
