Column Axial Capacity Control Report for SMF per AISC 341-16 with ideCAD

How does ideCAD control column axial capacity control according to AISC 341-16?


  • Two different situations are automatically taken into account by programme, when determining the internal forces for the design of the columns.


Columns, which are part of the frame members with high ductility level, are designed and reported under the tensile and compressive forces obtained by increasing them with the overstrength factor Emh.
