Summary:
• Structural sections may be considered as an assembly of individual plate elements.• Plate elements may be internal (e.g. the webs of open beams or the flanges of boxes and others are
outstand (e.g. the flanges of open sections and the legs of angles.
• !hen loaded in compression these plates may buckle locally.
• "ocal buc#ling within the cross-section may limit the load carrying capacity of the section by
preventing the attainment of yield strength.
• Premature failure (arising from the effects of local buc#ling may be avoided by limiting the width to
thic#ness ratio - or slenderness - of individual elements within the cross section.
• This is the basis of the section classification approach.
• $%& defines four classes of cross-section. The class into which a particular cross-section falls depends
upon the slenderness of each element and the compressive stress distribution.
Pre-reuisites:
• A wor#ing #nowledge of $uler buc#ling theory.
• The idea of normalising stresses against yield stress
!otes for "utors:
This material comprises one &' minute lecture.The lecturer can brea# up the session with one formative exercise part way through (calculation of normalised plate slendernessThe lecturer may apply a summative assessment at the end of the session reuiring that students confirm the

'( )ntroduction
Structural sections3 be they rolled or welded3 may be considered as an assembly of individual
plate elements3 some of which are internal (e.g. the webs of open beams or the flanges of boxes and others are outstand (e.g. the flanges of open sections and the legs of angles - see
figure /. As the plate elements in structural sections are relatively thin compared with their width3 when loaded in compression (as a result of axial loads applied to the whole section
and:or from bending they may buc#le locally. The disposition of any plate element within the
cross section to buc#le may limit the axial load carrying capacity3 or the bending resistance of
the section3 by preventing the attainment of yield. Avoidance of premature failure arising fromthe effects of local buc#ling may be achieved by limiting the width-to-thic#ness ratio for
individual elements within the cross section. This is the basis of the section classification
approach.

+( Classification$%& defines four classes of cross section. The class into which a particular cross section falls
depends upon the slenderness of each element (defined by a width-to-thic#ness ratio and the
compressive stress distribution i.e. uniform or linear. The classes are defined in terms of performance reuirements for resistance of bending moments
5.3.2 (1)
Class 1 cross-sections are those which can form a plastic hinge with the reuired rotational
capacity for plastic analysis.
Class 2 cross-sections are those which3 although able to develop a plastic moment3 havelimited rotational capacity and are therefore unsuitable for structures designed by plastic
analysis.
Class 3 cross-sections are those in which the calculated stress in the extreme compression fibre
can reach yield but local buc#ling prevents the development of the plastic moment resistance.
Class 4 cross-sections are those in which local buc#ling limits the moment resistance (or compression resistance for axially loaded members. $xplicit allowance for the effects of local
buc#ling is necessary.
Table / summarises the classes in terms of behaviour3 moment capacity and rotational capacity.

• Premature failure (arising from the effects of local buc#ling may be avoided by limiting

• This is the basis of the section classification approach.
• $%& defines four classes of cross-section. The class into which a particular cross-section
