Comparison of Design Guidelines for Hot-Rolled I-Shaped Steel Compression Members according to AISC 360-16 and EC3

<div>For a steel grade of S355, the variation of effective height (h<sub>e</sub>) of HEA1000 section with the effective length (L<sub>c</sub>) of the member. The effective heights computed using AISC 360-16 are compared with those computed using EC3 without making the class change allowed in Clause 5.5.2(9) in (a) and with making the class change in (b).</div>
