AS 4100-98 Member Code Check

The AS 4100-98 Member Code Check report lists the results of the Code Check for an individual member.

In the output, standard nomenclature is used. For columns and braces the member forces at both the top and bottom are shown. For beams, only the controlling member forces are shown, with the associated segment indicated.

The controlling load combination and the corresponding member forces and capacities are shown for both shear and flexure/axial force conditions. The member is controlled by the greater of the Shear Check results and the Interaction Equation results.

In the event that a capacity could not be calculated (See Error Messages) then the appropriate reason will be printed on the output.
