    This document summarizes applying interaction equations from BS EN 1993-1-1 to check the strength of a beam-column. It calculates two interaction factors for axial load and bending moment and compares them to limits in the standard. Both factors are below 1, so the member satisfies the strength requirements. It notes that using maximum interaction factor values from a table could cause failure, but the actual factors are closer to 1 due to the low axial load and slenderness of the member.

    Note that if the maximum values of the interaction factors given in Table 19.1 were to he used, the member would have failed. This is mainly due to the k,,,,factor, which has a maximum value of I.SC,,,, but for low axial loads and low major axis non-dimensional column slenderness, the value of k,,,,approaches I.OC,,,,,, as may he seen in Figure 19.12(a).
