Angle design for flexure per AISC ASD 9
Angle design for flexure per AISC ASD 9
(OP)
Question about angle design per AISC 9:
5.1.1 talks about tip of the angle in compression. Does this mean the the vertical leg points up? or can that also mean the leg in compression is laying flat and the vertical leg in tension. In this case the tip of the angle leg is also in compression.
Also, does anyone know of any design examples using this section?

The case where one whole leg is a tension flange and the tip of the other leg has the highest compression.
