Distance2 in Design of Steel Structures Formulas

Distance2 is denoted as ’b’ and it is the distance between where the point load is acting to the other end of the support in the beam. And is denoted by a₂. Distance2 is usually measured using the Meter for Length. Note that the value of Distance2 is always positive.
