C3.1.2.1 Lateral Buckling Strength<br />
M n = S c F c<br />
Φ b = 0.90<br />
(Eq. C3.1.2.1-1)<br />
By calculating the effective section modulus based on mid-span compression flange<br />
bracing, the resulting un-factored nominal moment is:<br />
M n = 12,921 in-lb<br />
(iterative calculation)<br />
C3.1.3 "Beams Having One Flange Through-Fastened to Deck or Sheathing"<br />
Does not apply.<br />
The factored moment is the smallest nominal moment calculated per AISI Specification<br />
Sections C3.1.1, C3.1.2, and C3.1.3 multiplied by the appropriate resistant factor, Φ.<br />
