E

...

c (D),

...

and

...

E

...

c (V)

...

are

...

given

...

as

...

follows:

...

  • Ec (S)

...

  • for

...

  • strength

...

  • design.

    • For LRFD,

...

    • E

...

    • c (S)

...

    • is

...

    • taken

...

    • directly

...

    • as

    • elasticity

...

    • of

    • the

...

    • material

...

    • assigned

...

    • to

...

    • the

...

    • composite

...

    • section.

...



    • For ASD,

...

    • E

...

    • c (S)

...

    • is

...

    • calculated

...

    • as

    • section.

...

  • Ec (D)

...

  • is

...

  • the
