D7.4.2.2<br />
Member Capacity<br />
This section applies only to members analysed using an elastic method of analysis. For bending about<br />
the minor principal y-axis only the in-plane requirements need to be satisfied.<br />

φN cy is determined in accordance with Clause 6.3 for buckling about the same principal axis,<br />
with an effective length factor (k ey ) taken as 1.0 for braced and sway members, unless a<br />
lower value of (k ey ) is calculated for braced members (refer 4.6.3 of AS 4100)<br />
Alternatively, For RHS & SHS to AS 1163, which are compact as defined in Clause 5.2.3 of AS 4100, and<br />
where the form factor (k f ) determined in accordance with Clause 6.2.2 is unity, φM iy may be calculated as<br />
per Clause 8.4.2.2 of AS 4100.<br />
