If the resultant loads pass through the shear center, then the section will not be subjected to any
The permissible stresses for main structural steel members under dynamic loads should be increased by what percentage?
The yield strength of the steel used in a structure is 400 MPa. What is the maximum allowable tensile strength?

A mild steel tube with a mean diameter of 20 mm and a thickness of 2 mm is used as an axially loaded tension member. If the yield strength (f_y) is 300 MPa, what is the maximum load that the member can carry?
Calculate the design wind pressure if the basic wind speed is 44 m/s, risk coefficient is 1, topography factor is 1, the terrain is with closely spaced buildings, and height of the building (class A) = 20 m.
Assuming that there is no possibility of shear buckling in the web, the maximum reduction permitted by IS 800-2007 in the (low shear) design bending strength of a semi compact steel section due to high shear is
