List of compression Member Posts-part 2.
11- Local Buckling stiffened and unstiffened.
This is the 11th post of the compression Member Posts-part 2 , which includes the local buckling classification of sections for local buckling, for compression, sections are classified as a non-slender element or slender element.
For non-slender elements, We have two factors, one factor for flange and the other is for the web. if the b flange / t flange < certain ratio λr. The section is the non-slender. the ratio, which we have already talked about via tables. h web/ t web < λr .
For a certain factor then the section is non-slender, if bigger than λr shown in the table, then the section is slender, then a reduction of the coefficient.

There are two coefficients, the first one is Qs and the second coefficient is Qa, the Qs is for the flange, if the lambda λ, is > the ratio is given, While the Qa is for the effective area/ A gross. Non -slender not exceeding λr, from table B4.1a,

This is the 14th post of the compression Member Posts-part 2 which includes a Solved problem 6-8 From Prof. Jack McCormac’s handbook. Determine the axial compressive design strength and the allowable design strength of a 24-ft HSS column section.
![Solved problem 6.8-Determine the axial compressive design strength.](https://magedkamel.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Pict-4-List-of-compression-part-2.jpg)
The base of the column is considered to be fixed, while the upper end is assumed to be pinned.

16-A solved problem 5-10 for local buckling.
This is the 16th post of the compression Member Posts-part 2 which includes a new example 5-10 from the unified design of steel structures by Louis F. Geshwendener.
In solved problem 5-10. It is required to determine the available strength of a compression member with a slender web, the section is W16x26 as a column with lcy =5.0 ft.

17-Alignment chart part 2.
This is the 17th post of the compression Member Posts-part 2 which includes the alignment chart, with conditions, of anti-symmetrical curvature for the unbraced frame.
![The second part f the Alignment chart.](https://magedkamel.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Pict-7-List-of-compression-part-2.jpg)
The Nomograph was based on the double curvature assumptions. we have a bending moment at one end, but at the other end, there is another moment, equal in magnitude, that will cause anti-symmetrical curvature.

18-A Review of portal frames.
This is the 18th post of the compression Member Posts-part 2 which includes How to make a structural analysis, and we give an example, as we have a frame that has two hinged supports and is acted upon by a force at the left side.
![Review of portal frame part-2](https://magedkamel.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Pict-8-List-of-compression-part-2.jpg)
The frame can be analyzed by dividing the frame into two parts, the first part has antisymmetrical loading and the second part has a symmetrical loading, and due to that loading the elastic curvature.

19-Modification to alignment chart unbraced frame.
This is the 19th post of the compression Member Posts-part 2 which includes discussing adjustments to be made for the G equation as the end condition for the girder does not match the requirement.
