If You know how to use the PV Elite software or Compress software, then you'll see how it is calculated. the calculated solution there is clear..

Thank you!
I'm doing this in PV but now, but I have more questions ....

In calculating of the maximum shear at top of one leg
- Which means "itot" and how is it calculated?

In calculating of the axial compression, Leg futhest from NA
- Which means "Nlegm" and how is it calculated?
- Which means "Rn" and how is it calculated?

In calculating of the allowable axial comp. For the selected leg
- Which means "kl/r" and "Fy" and how is it calculated?

In AISC check
- Which means "Spex" and "Sb" how is it calculated?

I'm trying to do as you said but the result of the equations of the report of PVELITE not coincide with the manual calculation!What can be happening?
Nobody has a spreadsheet for this type of situation? Or formulas to apply. ...
It is an urgent situation. ...
