Sye,
Attached is my staad file for the issue I mentioned yesterday. My take on this issue….The design module will not design certain rolled shapes that have slender
elements. Reviewing the clause in the aashto code rolled-shapes can be excluded from this check. If this is the case, where can designate these as rolled shapes: Is there a way?
As a check, I ran the same file using aisc unified 2010 with no issues and the stresses quite low. However, I need to design per AASHTO specs. Please advise
Thanks,
James (Jim) M. Rosgony, P.E.
