Share:
- 1It cannot account for the weight of the stiffeners
- 2It assumes the steel is an anisotropic material
- 3It neglects the 'Shear Deformation' (VGAv), which becomes significant at low span-to-depth ratios✓
- 4It ignores warping's contribution to the bending moment
Correct answer
It neglects the 'Shear Deformation' (VGAv), which becomes significant at low span-to-depth ratios
