Thank you for your question here! Here's the answer from our one of our engineers: "Distortional buckling is a bit tricky. A (perhaps oversimplified) explanation is that it's very similar to local buckling, but instead of just one element buckling (e.g. a slender flange), multiple elements buckle locally together as one - thus making the cross-section appear distorted. It's essentially just another failure mode - for members that have stiffened flanges (e.g. typical studs), this might govern - where the web and flanges buckle together instead of just the flange buckling."

Hi Geoselva, the codes AISI S100-16 and AS4600:2018 are referring to the different building standards applicable to different countries i.e. US and AU, respectively.

Many thanks, i will show it to all of my co-workers
Thank you, and hope ClearCalcs will be a powerful tool to you and your co-workers.
Great course!
Thanks Tom! Let us know any others you'd like to see!
HI
Is it possible to explain Distortional Buckling in CFS Beams ?

@@ClearCalcs thanks.....
did you meaning in a "stiffened flanges" flange connected to concrete slab ?
Is there any different concept between code AISI S100-16 and AS4600:2018? or the different is just the unit were using?

Does anyone have product brochure, I have no luck finding some.any info are welcome
