AS 4100 Benchmarks

Validate your AS 4100 steel structure calculations with confidence. Our benchmarks are meticulously derived from the Australian Steel Institute’s (ASI) Steel Structures – Sample Worked Problems to AS 4100 and thoroughly verified using SDC Verifier 2024 R1 for Femap (Simcenter Femap version 2022.2).

Key Benchmark Areas:

• Beam Design: Analyze lateral restraint conditions and accurately determine design moment capacities.
• Column Design: Assess design compression capacities for reliable column analysis.
• Combined Loading: Verify designs under complex loading scenarios involving both bending and compression.

Gain certainty in your steel structure designs with these essential AS 4100 benchmarks.

• Example 1 – Determine the Design Section Moment Capacity of a Universal Beam with Full Lateral Restraint 
• Example 2 – Determine the Design Member Moment Capacity of a Laterally Unrestrained Universal Beam 
• Example 3 – Design a Laterally Unrestrained Beam 
• Example 4 – Determine the Design Section Capacity for a Concentrically Loaded Member in Compression 
• Example 5 – Design a Universal Column Compression Member 
• Example 7 – Determine the Design Moment Capacity for the Major Axis for a Section also subject to Axial Compression
