Steel Formulas Updated

This document discusses structural steel elements in compression and beams. It provides equations to calculate the critical buckling stress and capacity of compression members based on their length and geometry. It also provides equations to calculate the plastic moment capacity, moment capacity depending on whether the beam section is compact or non-compact based on its width-thickness ratio, and checking flexural strength of beams.
