DESIGN
Slenderness Ratio Limitation
Member type
Members under compression under loads other than wind/ earthquake load Tension members - stress reversal due to loads other than wind load
Max. /r limit
180 180 250
Members designed only for tension even though they may experience stress reversal 350 Members always under tension (unless pre-tensioned to avoid sag)

ECONOMIC CONSIDERATIONS
Usually material requirement is least Fabrication cost is higher per unit wt.
Minimise joining material requirements Shop & field fabrication facilities available Preferred fabrication & past experiences Transportation requirements & constraints Repetitive fabrication facility
