Beyond Cross-Section Strength: Moment-Curvature Analysis
In structural design, strength interaction curves (P-M diagrams) are widely used to assess section capacity under combined axial and flexural loads. However, they only tell part of the story. These capacity surfaces, limited by arbitrary strain cutoffs and code-based reduction factors, cannot capture the real behavior of a section throughout its loading history. In this […]
