"mystery" formula from AISC spec ?
"mystery" formula from AISC spec ?
(OP)
Can someone identify this "mystery" formula purportedly from AISC for "unity" check? I was provided with this formula in some calculations; due to the context I assume they are referring to the combined load checks for beam-column. I can't identify this in the 9th or 13th Editions of the AISC "manual".
(Sma/Sa)+(0.85*S)/((1-Sma/Spex)*Sb)
(Sma/Sa)+(0.85*S)/((1-Sma/Spex)*Sb)
