Revision of V721Revision of V721

In cases where tension-only/compression-only elements have extremely small compression/tension, the compression/tension forces are ignored in the design process.

Steel Design- Compression/tension forces are ignored if they are less than 1/10000 of (Steel Sectional Area × Fy).- This is identically applied to tapered sections and the area is measured at the section where the strength check is to be performed.

RC Design- Compression/tension forces are ignored if they are less than 1/10000 of (Concrete Area × Fck).- Reinforcement is not taken into account since the forces are calculated before design.

SRC Design- Compression/tension forces are ignored if they are less than 1/10000 of (Steel Sectional Area × Fy).- In SRC Design, it is common to design in a way that only the steel section can resist compression and tension
