Formula 5.3a from EN 1992-1-1:2004: Chapter 5 - Structural Analysis.

Classes:

Form5Dot3aTransverseForceUnbracedMembers(
    theta_i: DIMENSIONLESS, n_axial_force: KN
)

Bases: Formula

Class representing formula 5.3a for the calculation of the transverse force for unbraced members, [\(H_{i}\)].

See Figure 5.1 a1.

[\(H_{i}\)] Transverse force for unbraced members [\(kN\)].

EN 1992-1-1:2004 art.5.2(7) - Formula (5.3a)

Parameters:

  • theta_i (DIMENSIONLESS) –

    [\(\Theta_{i}\)] Eccentricity, initial inclination imperfections [-].

    Use your own implementation of this value or use the :class:Form5Dot1Imperfections class.

  • n_axial_force (KN) –

    [\(N\)] Axial force [\(kN\)].

    Positive values for compression, tension is not allowed.

Notes

Eccentricity is suitable for statically determinate members, whereas transverse load can be used for both determinate and indeterminate members. The force [\(H_{i}\)] may be substituted by some other equivalent transverse action.
