This message is created by specifying the element name and floor on which it is located at the beginning of the report.

For example,

SBR001 BASE STORY Section dimensions do not conform toTBDY Table 9.3.

Cross-section conditions of steel structural system braces with high ductility level and normal ductility level are checked in accordance with TBDY Table 9.3. The head width/thickness and body height/thickness ratios of steel elements should not exceed the λ hd or λ md limit value given in Table 9.3 .

For detailed information, you can review the title below.

TBDY 2018 Controls for Steel Carrier System Types

Possible Solutions:

  • The cross-section of the steel brace whose name and floor are given can be changed.

  • When choosing a steel cross-section, a cross-section selection can be made to reduce the header width/thickness or body height/thickness ratio.

  • If the structure is suitable, the ductility level can be resolved to a limited extent.

TBDY Table 9.3 is given below.
