I am modelling a steel OWSJ, and the web members are solid steel rods. S-steel isn't analyzing them in a code check. Is there any way to check them?
Hi Matthew,
Thanks for getting in touch.
What you are describing is possible, if you define a circular shape using the 'Shapes' button in the section properties dialogue. Below are a few images that explain how this can be done for a circular section.
When the model is analyzed, you can then go to S-STEEL and code check the section as well.
Hopefully this can be of use.
