    Nominal moment strength & plastic moment capacity

    I am sorry but I didn't quite clearly understand what 271828 said..Is there any explanation for my doubt based on mechanics of rectangular section? Is it because d<<<b that when the section bends about the minor axis there is not much difference between its nominal moment capacity and plastic...
