My diagonals is not check, I'll let my interpretation here for your appreciation: If the tower is triangular: sin (alpha) = Ps / Pr <=> Pr = 1.15 x Ps As I have a brace in diamond, the diagonals have: cos (theta) = (0.5 x Pr) / Nresistant <=> Nresistant Pr = 0.5 x / cos (theta) Nresistant...

Last post is not relevant, because I already knew. thank you

however my triangular tower, presents a growth in the angle of the diagonals. What for angles greater than 60 (without affecting the coefficient 1.5), automatically 0.5xPr/cos value (angle) falls outside the range 1.5% to 2.5%. I can not have bars above 60 º?

Thank you for the explanation, you helped me a lot once again thank you. Regards, John

I thank the web for the explanation of JoshPlum that somehow confirmed partially waht I was doing for the numerical design example in my master of science thesis in civil structural engineering. But a doubt still stands related to what control value should be used for the required design...

UP!

Thanks for the explanation, I understand. However, according to table 4.1 and 4.2, the diagonal members to be, for my case (1.15xPs) = Pr, in which the minimum strength required = 1.15xPsx0.5/cos (angle). This minimum resistance value is compared with anything? I do not understand what it...

I'll put are a number of questions that would like to see clarified: 1)which is a support member in TIA? 2)I have to check the condition of PS in leg members? In my opinion as Pe is high is not necessary to check buckling problems, the geometric characteristics of own section. Thus, not...

Good afternoon, someone can explain me the checks required by TIA-222-G for minimum bracing Resistance (page 69). I understand that the bracing must satisfy the condition of Ps, however I do not understand why Pr determine the minimum required design and Strengths of multiple connecting...
