second order effects

EK662

If the buckling load is more than 10 times the applied load then the system is a sway system and second order effects need to be considered. Else the second […]

EK661

If the buckling load is 10 times larger than the applied load then there is no need to include second order effects in the analysis of the global system.

EK660

According to Eurocode the second order effects may be ignored if they are less than 10 percent of corresponding first order effect.

EK651

According to Eurocode 2, if the second order effects is taken into account, the equilibrium and resistance should be checked in the deformed state, including effects of cracking, non-linear material […]

EK639

If the critical buckling load is less than 10 times the applied vertical design load then second order effects need to be included in the structural analysis.
