Buckling Type (NEN Code)

Use this option to define appropriate code-imposed buckling parameters depending on the static bar scheme. Access the option by clicking the corresponding icon in the Lateral Buckling Parameters field of the Member Definition - Parameters dialog.

According to code requirements, one of the schemes included in the code should be selected. Schemes can be selected by pressing icons that depict precisely appropriate code positions. The last icon excludes any lateral buckling effects from calculations.
