Panoramica
NEL 1993-1-1: Progettazione di strutture in acciaio (Eurocodice 3) outlines design guidelines for structural steel members for use in buildings using the limit state method. Limit state design entails comparing factored design loads against reduced section and member capacities. These factors are intended to account for variability in loading conditions and material properties. Per lo stato limite ultimo (ULS) disegno da soddisfare, la seguente relazione deve essere vera:
\(ULS \;Fattore * Carico ≤ Riduzione \;Fattore * Capacity\)

Fabbricazione
NEL 1993-1-1 provides design guidance for four types of structural steel fabrication:
- Sezioni laminate a caldo: Hot rolled sections are manufactured by heating and rolling steel billet through a mill to achieve a required shape. Examples include UB/UC/UBP I-Sections, T-Sections, Canali e sezioni angolari.
- Welded Sections: Welded (o fabbricato) sections are made up of several hot-rolled flat plates welded together longitudinally to form a steel shape. Custom fabricated sections are typically welded.
- Hot Finished Sections: Hot finished sections are produced by heating steel beyond its recrystallisation temperature before rolling to improve the strength of the end product. These sections are almost always structural hollow sections (RHS/SHS/CHS).
- Sezioni formate a freddo: Cold formed sections are fabricated by pressing steel billet through a mill at room temperature. Cold forming can be used to produce structural hollow sections and thinner open sections. Note EN 1993-1-1 only provides guidance for hollow cold-formed sections.
Grado d'acciaio
Europe and the United Kingdom have numerous steel grades (punti di forza) that can be used for design in accordance with EN 1993-1-1. There are several European material standards for different types of steel fabrication:
- NEL 10025: Hot rolled products.
- NEL 100210: Hot finished structural hollow sections.
- NEL 10219: Cold formed welded structural hollow sections.

Yield & Resistenza alla trazione
The yield strength of a material is the stress limit past which plastic deformation will occur. The tensile strength is the maximum stress a material can take before it fails / breaks apart. Yield and tensile strengths of steel sections are dependent on steel grade and thickness. Typically strength increases with steel grade but decreases with increased steel thickness.
NEL 1993-1-1 tavolo 3.1 provides a simplified approach for calculating the yield and tensile strength of a section based on its grade and thickness. A more detailed material strength calculation can be carried out by referring to the material relevant material standard. The SkyCiv EN 1993-1-1 Steel Member Design module does non use this simplification and instead refers to the relevant materials standards for material strength calculation.
Selecting a Section in SkyCiv EN 1993-1-1 Design del membro in acciaio
The SkyCiv NEL 1993-1-1 Design del membro in acciaio tool allows users to select a Standard steel section from the SkyCiv database or design a completely custom section. The program automatically calculates yield strength values for the section flange and web based on the selected steel grade. Users can also adopt a custom steel grade and manually input material properties if required.
Classificazione della sezione
Section Classification is a system used by EN 1993-1-1 to identify the susceptibility of a section to local buckling before attaining its full plastic capacity. Large slender shapes are typically more susceptible to local buckling than small, stocky shapes. The SkyCiv NEL 1993-1-1 Design del membro in acciaio tool automatically calculates the classification of standard and custom steel sections based on the applied loading conditions. Eurocodice 3 has four Section Classification categories:
- Classe 1: Sections that can form a plastic hinge and develop their plastic moment/axial resistance, meaning the entire section can reach its yield strength under bending and/or compression. Classe 1 sections also have high rotational capacity. Plastic section properties are used in capacity calculations.
- Classe 2: Sections with the ability to form a plastic hinge but have limited rotational capacity. Eurocodice 3 treats Class 1 and Class 2 sections similarly for almost all capacity calculations.
- Classe 3: Sections that can reach yield strength in their extreme compressive fibre, but buckle locally before plastic moment resistance is achieved. Elastic section properties are used in capacity calculations.
- Classe 4: Local buckling will occur before yield strength is reached in part/s of the section. Reduced elastic section properties are used in capacity calculations.
Nota, Classe 4 sections include additional complexity in calculation of section properties / resistance and are not covered in this guide.
Compression Elements
Section classification is determined by breaking a section into a series of compression elements and calculating their slenderness (clear length relative to thickness). Elements are classified as either:
- Internal: Restrained against buckling at both ends – vale a dire. web of an I-Section.
- Outstand: Only restrained against buckling at one end – vale a dire. flange of an I-Section.
The calculated slenderness values are compared to Table 5.2 in EN 1993-1-1 to determine their class. The classification of the section is taken as the least favourable classification of its compression elements. Nota, section classification changes depending on the forces on the section (particularly varying axial force). Methods for classifying each type of loading are summarised below.
Classification Ratios
Parts Subject to Compression
Elements in pure compression are classified based on their slenderness only using the limits outlined below.
Classe | Internal Parts | Outstand Parts | |
1 | c / t ≤ 33ε | c / t ≤ 9ε | |
2 | c / t ≤ 38ε | c / t ≤ 10ε | |
3 | c / t ≤ 42ε | c / t ≤ 14ε |
Dove:
\(ε = \sqrt{\frac{235}{f_y}}\)
Parts Subject to Bending
Internal elements in pure bending are classified based on their slenderness the limits outlined below.
Classe | Internal Parts | |
1 | c / t ≤ 72ε | |
2 | c / t ≤ 83ε | |
3 | c / t ≤ 124ε |
Outstand elements subject to pure bending are classified based on the ratio of compressive and tensile stress under the bending moment value resulting in compressive stress equal to yield stress at the extreme fibre. The method for calculating this ratio is detailed in the section below.
Parts Subject to Compression & Flessione
Elements subject to combined compression and bending are classified based on their compressive / tensile stress distribution under the applied compression loading. This ratio is represented by the α symbol for plastic stress distribution and ψ symbol for elastic stress distribution.
Plastic Stress Distribution
Formulae for calculating plastic stress ratio (un') for different shape profiles are provided below.
I-Section Plastic Stress Distribution
T-Section Plastic Stress Distribution
Note minor axis stress distributions for T-Sections are similar to those of an I-section.
Channel Plastic Section Stress Distribution
Note major axis stress distributions for T-Sections are similar to those of an I-section.
RHS Plastic Stress Distribution
Elastic Stress Distribution
Elastic stress distribution calculations are similar for all sections and shapes, due to the linear stress distribution between the extreme fibres. The formula for calculating the minimum stress in a section under applied compression and bending is shown below.
Section Classification in SkyCiv EN 1993-1-1 Design del membro in acciaio
La SkyCiv EN 1993-1-1 Design del membro in acciaio tool automatically determines the Section Classification of standard and custom sections based on the user-input loading. An example output for a Grade S 275, 430x100x64 Channel with 20kN of compression loading is detailed below.
A single Section Classification value is used for all calculations based on the applied axial force and direction of applied bending moment. If a member has bending moment applied about both axes, the most conservative classification from each direction is adopted. Users can also override the automatic calculation of Section Classification and specify a classification manually.
Nota, Clausola 5.4.1(3) specifies that singly symmetric sections (such as T-sections and Channels) cannot be designed using plastic analysis when bent about their non-symmetric axis. Hence sections of this nature are automatically assigned Class 3.
Section Resistance
Flessione
Section Bending Resistance
Section bending moment capacity is calculated using EN 1993-1-1 Clausola 6.2.5.
\(M_{c,Rd} = W*f_y/γ_{M0}\)
Where W is the plastic section modulus (WResistenza della sezione in compressione) for Class 1 & 2 sezioni, or the elastic section modulus (Wil) for Class 3 sezioni, fy is the yield stress of the material and γ is the partial safety reduction factor.
Il modulo di sezione di una forma è una proprietà geometrica che quantifica la resistenza alla flessione di una forma. The plastic section modulus assumes that the entire section reaches its yield strength under bending. Il modulo di sezione plastica di una sezione viene calcolato come segue:
\(Angolo di attrito{Resistenza della sezione in compressione} = A_{C} * y_{C} + UN_{T} * y_{T} \)
Dove unC e AT sono le aree su entrambi i lati dell’Asse Neutrale Plastico (ANNA), e yc / yt sono la distanza dal PNA al baricentro di quelle aree. Nota, la posizione del PNA è uguale alla posizione del baricentro geometrico per le forme simmetriche ma lo farà non uguale alla posizione del baricentro geometrico per le forme asimmetriche.
Il modulo elastico di sezione assume l'intera sezione (forma) rimane elastico sotto flessione, vale a dire. nessuna parte della sezione supera il limite di snervamento (fy) del materiale. Il modulo elastico di una sezione si calcola come segue:
\(Angolo di attrito{il} = frac{I}{y}\)
Dove I è il momento secondo dell'area e y è il baricentro geometrico della forma. Note for an asymmetric shape, the elastic modulus value used in design is the lesser value for positive and negative bending about that axis.
Calculating Section Bending Resistance in SkyCiv EN 1993-1-1 Design del membro in acciaio
Once the relevant Section Classification has been calculated, il modulo calcola la capacità del momento flettente della sezione (Mc) about each principal axis. Results for the same 430x100x64 Channel are shown in the example below.

Section Shear Resistance
Shear resistance is calculated using EN 1993-1-1 Clausola 6.2.6. Capacity calculations are dependent on the Section Classification of the steel member. Capacity for Class 1 & 2 sections are calculated based on plastic shear resistance, whereas an elastic shear resistance is used for Class 3 & 4 sezioni.
Plastic shear resistance is calculated using the formula below:
\(V_{Resistenza della sezione in compressione,Rd}=A_v * (f_y / \sqrt{3}) / γ_{M0}\)
Where Av is the shear area of the section in the direction of applied shear force. For most sections this area is equivalent to the area of the web for major axis direction shear, and the area of the flanges for the other direction. Formulae for calculating shear area are provided in EN 1993-1-1 Clausola 6.2.6(3).
Elastic shear resistance is calculated using the relationship below, which ensures the shear stress at the critical point of the cross-section is less than the yield stress.
\(τ_{Ed}/(f_y / (\sqrt{3 * γ_{M0}})) ≤ 1\)
The shear stress at this critical point is calculated as follows:
\(τ_{Ed}=(V_{Ed} * S)/(I * t)\)
Dove VEd is the applied shear force, S is the first moment of area, I is the section moment of area and t is the thickness at the critical stress location.
The elastic shear stress formula can then be arranged to represent a resistance value (in kN):
\(V_{il,Rd} = (I * t * \sqrt{3})/(S * f_y)\)
Shear Buckling
Long, slender webs may buckling under applied shear force before they reach their elastic shear resistance. Webs are susceptible to shear buckling if they satisfy the formula below from EN 1993-1-1 Clausola 6.2.6(6):
\(h / t > 72 * ε/η \)
Dove η is a factor usually taken as 1.0. Webs susceptible to shear buckling must be checked in accordance with Section 5 o AND 1993-1-5. Nota, shear capacity in accordance with EN 1993-1-5 is not covered in the SkyCiv EN 1993-1-1 attrezzo, but a warning will be displayed if a section is susceptible to shear buckling.
Impact of Shear Force on Bending & Compression Resistance
High applied shear force can have a negative impact on the moment and axial resistance of a section. In EN 1993-1-1, this impact is captured by reducing the yield strength of the section relative to the magnitude of the applied shear (refer Clause 6.2.8 & 6.2.10). When the section shear force is meno di half its plastic shear resistance in that direction, this impact can be neglected. If the applied shear is greater than this value, the reduced yield strength is calculated as follows:
\(f_{y,Rd} = (1 -Capacità di compressione di una corda di fondo in una capriata del tetto soggetta a sollevamento del vento) * f_y \)
Dove:
\(ρ = (2 * V_{Ed} / V_{Resistenza della sezione in compressione,Rd} – 1)^2)
La SkyCiv EN 1993-1-1 Design del membro in acciaio module automatically calculates any reduction in yield strength due to high applied shear force and uses this reduced value in section bending and compression resistance calculations. Nota, this reduction only applies for the section resistance of a member, not the buckling resistance.

Compressione
Section Compression Resistance
NEL 1993-1-1 Clausola 6.2.4 calcola la capacità di compressione (Nc) of a concentrically loaded Class 1,2 o 3 section as follows:
\(N_{c,Rd} = A*f_y / γ_{M0}\)
Where A is the gross area of the cross section and fy è il carico di snervamento della sezione.

Tensione
Section Tension Resistance
NEL 1993-1-1 Clausola 6.2.3 calcola la capacità di un'asta tesa (Non) to be the lesser of the plastic tension resistance and ultimate tension resistance:
\(N_{t,Rd} = min(A*f_{y}/γ_{M0} \; ,\; 0.9*UN_{n}*f_u /γ_{Eurocodice di design con piastra di base in acciaio})\)
Where A is the gross area of the section, An è l'area netta della sezione trasversale (area lorda esclusi attraversamenti/fori), fy è il yield strength della sezione, fu è il trazione (ultimo) strength of the section.
Calculating Tension Resistance in SkyCiv EN 1993-1-1 Design del membro in acciaio

Flessione & Forza assiale
When a section has applied axial tension or compression force, the effect of this force on the section bending moment resistance should be accounted for. The method for assessing this effect outlined in EN 1993-1-1 Clausola 6.2.9 varies for Class 1 & 2 and Class 3 sezioni.
Classe 1 & 2 sezioni
Combined bending and axial force is assessed for Plastic sections by reducing the plastic moment resistance in each direction by an amount proportional to the axial force. This reduced moment resistance is referred to by the symbol MN,Rd. Calculation of MN,Rd varies depending on the section shape and is outlined in EN 1993-1-1 Clausola 6.2.9.1. Once reduced moment resistance is calculated, the following criterion is used for assessing combined bending and axial resistance:
\( (M_{y,Ed} / M_{Ny,Rd})^α + (M_{z,Ed} / M_{Nz,Rd})^ β ≤ 1\)
Dove α and β are constants that vary with the section shape – refer EN 1993-1-1 Clausola 6.2.9.1.
Classe 3 sezioni
Combined bending and axial force in Elastic sections is instead assessed using a general elastic stress formula detailed below:
\( N_{Ed} / N_{c,Rd} + M_{z,Ed} / M_{cz,Rd} + M_{y,Ed} / M_{ci,Rd} ≤ 1\)
Note any reduction in yield strength required due to applied shear force should be used in calculation of the section resistance values in the formulae above.
Buckling Resistance
Flessione
Lateral Torsional Buckling Resistance
Long, unrestrained steel members can fail in lateral-torsional buckling prior to attaining their section bending moment resistance. Lateral torsional buckling occurs when the section rotates away from its major axis towards its minor axis, meaning moment resistance in the direction of applied bending is reduced. Guidance for calculating member lateral-torsional buckling resistance is provided in EN 1993-1-1 Clausola 6.3.2.
Lateral-torsional buckling resistance is calculated using the below formula:
\(M_{b,Rd} = χ_{Verifica dell'ACI}*W*f_y/ γ_{M1}\)
Where W is the plastic section modulus (WResistenza della sezione in compressione) for Class 1 & 2 sezioni, or elastic section modulus (Wil) for Class 3 sezioni. χVerifica dell'ACI is a reduction factor for lateral-torsional buckling, guidance for calculating this factor is provided in EN 1993-1-1 Clausola 6.3.2.2 e 6.3.2.3.
Compression Flange
Members fail in lateral-torsional buckling when the compression flange rotates and displaces laterally. If the compression flange of a member is sufficiently restrained, it will not be susceptible to lateral torsional buckling (refer EN 1993-1-1 Clausola 6.3.2.1(2)). Compression flange locations for standard sections under vertical loading are shown below.
Sezioni cave circolari (CHS) e sezioni cave quadrate (SHS) non sono suscettibili di instabilità torsionale laterale, as they have equal section moment resistance about both axes (meaning lateral displacement and rotation don’t affect the member bending resistance).
Minor Axis Bending Buckling Resistance
The bending capacity for a member bent about its minor axis is equal to the minor axis section resistance about that axis. The minor axis section capacity is the minimum capacity a section can achieve about any axis, quindi l'elemento non può ruotare da questo asse in un orientamento meno favorevole.
Calculating Member Bending Resistance in EN 1993-1-1 Design del membro in acciaio
La SkyCiv EN 1993-1-1 Design del membro in acciaio tool calculates carries out lateral-torsional resistance calculations in accordance with EN 1993-1-1 Clausola 6.3.2.2 e clausola 6.3.2.3, depending on the section shape and applied National Annex. Users also have the option to specify a member as having “Continuous Torsional Restraint” which will automatically skip all lateral-torsional buckling checks. Lateral-torsional buckling resistance calculations for a 5000mm long 254×102 Puoi trovare una gamma di tipi di connessione che soddisfano le tue esigenze senza dover occuparti di sistemi di interfaccia utente disordinati che richiedono una curva di apprendimento ripida per iniziare 28 sono dettagliate di seguito.
Compressione
Flexural Buckling Resistance
The compression buckling resistance of a member is also affected by its length and lateral rigidity. Sfrenato, è probabile che gli elementi più lunghi cedano a causa dell'instabilità per flessione prima della sezione (schiacciare) la capacità è raggiunta. NEL 1993-1-1 Clausola 6.3.1.3 provides guidance on calculating member flexural buckling resistance for Class 1, 2 & 3 sezioni trasversali:
\(N_{b,Rd} = χ*A*f_y/ γ_{M1}\)
Dove χ is a reduction factor for flexural buckling. Guidance for calculating this factor is provided in EN 1993-1-1 Clausola 6.3.1.3. Flexural capacity must be checked about both axes to find the governing value for the member.
Calculating Flexural Buckling Resistance in EN 1993-1-1 Design del membro in acciaio
La SkyCiv EN 1993-1-1 Design del membro in acciaio tool calculates flexural buckling resistance about both principal axes based on restraint lengths and effective length factors specified by the user.

Torsional-Flexural Buckling Resistance
Open cross-sections are also susceptible to torsional-flexural buckling, which can be less than the member resistance to flexural buckling. Sezioni cave circolari (CHS) e sezioni cave quadrate (SHS) members are not susceptible to torsional-flexural buckling. NEL 1993-1-1 Clausola 6.3.1.4 provides guidance on calculating member torsional-flexural buckling resistance:
\(N_{bT,Rd} = χ_T*A*f_y/ γ_{M1}\)
Dove χVerifica dell'ACI is a reduction factor for torsional-flexural buckling. Guidance for calculating this factor is provided in EN 1993-1-1 Clausola 6.3.1.3. Flexural capacity must be checked about both axes to find the governing value for the member.
