Adding transverse stiffeners perpendicular to a web
(I beams and columns) stiffen the web against out
of plane deformations. What about adding only
transverse stiffeners parallel to the web? It’s a one
storey project involving 6м span, RC columns, simple

Can I assume (from the picture) that the unbraced length equals the distance between diaphragms?https://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=ea114c13-88a5-4491-8e6a-62e8c9b8ff0c&file=1.jpeg
A timber beam sandwiched between two cold formed U-sections, all bolted together. Can I assume, that the U-sections are restrained against lateral torsional buckling?
Imagine a roof’s sloped beam, similar to a rafter. The roof has a 25 degree pitch angle. The live load is uniform and with downward vertical direction, causing bending in the beam. Is it correct (possible), to reduce the loads [DL and LL], multiplying them by 0.90(cosine 25 degrees) in order to...
