@Klaus:
what is "nad" calculation? I've done a FEM buckling analysis using Sap2000 and schematizing the beam using Shell (Thin). The lenght is necessary if i perform a calculation using Eurocode 3 standar method to check stability.
@Eaglee:
i totally agree with you, thank you for the tip abou...
thank for your help.
the item is a steel part of a heavier machine. Which are the imperfection that i have to consider? I must imagine some imperfection?
Furthermore, i would like to use Eurocode3 for checking the lateral torsional stability of the beam, but i don't know in this case which is...
Hi all,
I've done a buckling analysis in order to investigate the lateral torsional buckling of a particular cantilevered steel beam on two support (here the schema:Link)
I've found a buckling factor of 8.
I would like to know which is the "minimum" buckling factor to take in order to be sure...
