I'm doing some design work on SAP 2000 involving steel I-beams supporting uniform distributed loads. As I'm still quite new to the software, I was wondering how accurate SAP 2000 checks for LTB when designing/auto-selecting beams. I intend on doing some verification models of simply support beams to test it out but I just want to hear what are the community's experience with it. So in short - does the Steel Design feature accurately account for LTB? I look forward to your responses.
