Eurocode 3 :Some verifications are missed in the Tube Truss node connection

[Anonymous]

Dear Supports,

i am using Autodesk robot 2014 professional with Latest service packs.

When I verify the design report I note that the normal forces shown in table 7.21 for the chord web yielding stability is not done  (See the table attached and the design report).

thank you in advance.

Dear Artur,

Kindly find attached the portion of the lattice Tower with the related steel connection.

Note that I found  the verification of the beam web yielding under normal forces is not done in Robot for this Type of connection.

(only web buckling due to bending moment is verifed).

Your help is very appreciated.

Thank you

Wassim
