Lateral torsional buckling
Lateral torsional buckling
(OP)
Can you guys advise about the Lateral torsional buckling length for a cantilever beam in a lightweight roof, which is torsionally braced with knee bracing attached to purlins at interval of 3 meters.
Shall I take LTB length as 3 m or shall I take it as a percentage of 8.7 m

There does not appear to be a knee brace at the column, so the stiffness of the column itself must satisfy deflection requirements specified in the code in order to be considered an adequate lateral brace.
