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

Figure 6

Variation of design compression capacities (design compressive strengths (ϕcPn) for AISC 360-16 and design buckling resistances (Nb,Rd) for EC3) with effective member length (Lc) for some studied shapes and steel grades. The graphs in (a, c, e, g) compare the capacities, and the graphs in (b, d, f, h) plot the capacity ratios (Nb,RdcPn).
