1.0 Specification: Ref Output Calculation

This document provides calculations for the design of a beam-column structural element. It includes specifications for the main and secondary beams. Dimensions and properties like moments of inertia are calculated for the column and beams. Relative stiffness values are determined for the column. Effective lengths are found to be 1505mm for the column in both the z and y axes. Slenderness ratios are calculated as 41.7 for the z-axis and 17.38 for the y-axis. The z-axis is found to be slender while the y-axis is non-slender based on comparison to calculated slenderness limits.
