Limiting Size in Design of Steel Structures Formulas

Limiting Size is the larger value among 0.5(N -0.95d) and 0.5(B -0.80b), where N is the plate length, B is the minimum width of plate, d is the depth of column and b is the width of flange. And is denoted by p. Limiting Size is usually measured using the Millimeter for Length. Note that the value of Limiting Size is always negative.
