Steel Design: GEOMETRICAL PROPERTIES

The geometrical properties, as detailed in Cl. 3.6 of IS 800:2007, of the gross and the effective cross-sections of a member or part thereof, shall be calculated on the following basis: a) the properties of the gross cross-section shall be calculated from the specified size of the member or part thereof or read from appropriate table b) The properties of the effective cross-section shall be calculated by deducting from the area of the gross cross-section, the following:

� The sectional area in excess of effective plate width, in case of slender sections.

� The sectional areas of all holes in the section except for parts in compression. In case of punched holes, hole size 2 mm in excess of the actual diameter may be deducted.
