σ max =− M z / W el , zR
in which W el , zL =− I z / y L and W el , zR = I z / y R are the elastic section moduli for
bending about the z axis.
Values of I y , I z , W el , z , W el , z for hot-rolled steel sections are given in [9], while
valuesforothersectionscanbecalculatedasindicatedinSection5.9orinstandard
textbooks [1, 2]. Expressions for the properties of some thin-walled sections are
given in Figure 5.6 [10].When a section has local holes, or excessive widths (see
Section 4.2.2.2), these properties may need to be reduced accordingly.
Worked examples of the calculation of cross-section properties are given in
Sections 5.12.1-5.12.4.
5.3.2 Biaxial bending
When a beam deflects only in a plane xz 1 which is not a principal plane (see
Figure 5.7a), so that its curvature d 2 v 1 /d x 2 in the perpendicular xy 1 plane is zero,
then the bending stresses
σ =− Ez 1 d 2 w 1 / d x 2
(5.8)
have moment resultants
M y 1 =− EI y 1 d 2 w 1 / d x 2
and
(5.9)
M z 1 =− EI y 1 z 1 d 2 w 1 / d x 2
