When the support structural member is attached to a stiffener the following calculations are used, where
|
SL = |
Snipe length on the leg of the framework |
|
|---|---|---|
|
FL = |
Length of leg |
|
|
M1 = |
Control gap for back-to-back. The default is 10 mm. |
|
|
M2 = |
Length in the opposite direction of M1 on flange of stiffener |
|
|
M3 = |
Distance between flange top outside edge of stiffener and leg point connected with the flange top of stiffener (default = 25 mm) |
|
|
When L > M1 + FL + M2 and M2 >= 25mm, Snip is not provided on support leg as below.
|
When L > M1 + FL + M2 and M2 < 25mm Snip is to be provided on support leg as below
|
|
|
When L =< M1 + FL and M2 (=M1 + FL - L) =< 0 (zero) mm Snip is to be provided on support leg as below
