how to design Steel column UC305x97+Half cut UB305x46 in staad using IS:800-2007 LSM?
I tried to design it by modelling it in user table and then calculating its property. Naturally it should be better in terms of property when using T section in addition to UC.
but some how its design bending capacity is reduced (less that UC305x97) . May be due to change in section classification? How to re verify using manual calculation whether stadd calculation is genuine or not..
