Applicable of Radius of Gyration
Applicable of Radius of Gyration
(OP)
Hi,
For a single angle in tension with bolted connection in horiZontal leg, you have yielding tensile strength controlling. How would you explain to select rz over other radii of gyration while calculating slenderness ratio.
Is there a way to remember which radius of gyration to select among all provided values?
Thanks

But, if you're designing to any kind of a code (AISC, for example), you use the value specified in that code, and that value can vary.
