Manual calculation (SNiP II-23-81*):

1. Moment of inertia and section modulus of one batten with respect to its own axis:

\[ I_{s} =\frac{t_{0} b^{3}}{12}=\frac{1\cdot 17^{3}}{12}=409,4167 \quad cm^{4}; \] \[ W_{s} =\frac{t_{0} b^{2}}{6}=\frac{1\cdot 17^{2}}{6}=48,167 \quad cm^{3}. \]

2. Distance between chord axes:

\[ b=B-2z_{0} =30-2\cdot 2,47=25,06 \quad cm. \]

3. Slenderness of one of the chords in the sections between the battens (in the clear):

\[ \lambda_{1,y} =\frac{l_{1,y} }{i_{1,y} }=\frac{600}{10,871}=55,193; \quad \bar{{\lambda }}_{1,y} =\lambda_{1,y} \sqrt {\frac{R_{y} }{E}} =55,193\sqrt {\frac{240}{2,06\cdot 10^{5}}} =1,884\le 5; \] \[ \lambda_{1,z} =\frac{l_{1,z} }{i_{1,z} }=\frac{s-b}{i_{1,z} }=\frac{112-17}{2,728}=34,824<40; \quad \bar{{\lambda }}_{1,z} =\lambda_{1,z} \sqrt {\frac{R_{y} }{E}} =34,824\sqrt {\frac{240}{2,06\cdot 10^{5}}} =1,1886\le 5. \]

4. Column slenderness and respective conditional slenderness:

\[ \lambda_{y} =\frac{l_{ef,y} }{i_{y} }=\frac{600}{10,871}=55,193; \quad \Rightarrow \quad \bar{{\lambda }}_{y} =\lambda_{y} \sqrt {\frac{R_{y} }{E}} =55,193\sqrt {\frac{240}{2,06\cdot 10^{5}}} =1,884<2,5; \] \[ \lambda_{z} =\frac{l_{ef,z} }{i_{z} }=\frac{600}{12,824}=46,787. \]

5. Reduced and conditional reduced slenderness of the column with respect to the free axis:

7. Limit compressive forces causing the column buckling about the respective axes:

\[ N_{b,y} =\varphi_{y} AR_{y} \gamma_{c} =0,8279\cdot 70,4\cdot 24\cdot 1=1398,82 \quad kN; \] \[ N_{b,z} =\varphi_{z} AR_{y} \gamma_{c} =0,813\cdot 70,4\cdot 24\cdot 1=1373,645 \quad kN. \]

8. Conditional shear force Qfic:

\[ Q_{fic} =7,15\cdot 10^{-6}\left( {2330-\frac{E}{R_{y} }} \right)\frac{N}{\varphi_{z} }=7,15\cdot 10^{-6}\left( {2330-\frac{2,06\cdot 10^{5}}{240}} \right)\frac{1400}{0,813}=18,1198 \quad kN. \]

9. Force F, shearing the batten, and moment M1, bending the batten in its plane:

\[ F=\frac{Q_{s} s}{b}=\frac{Q_{fic} s}{2b}=\frac{18,1198\cdot 112}{2\cdot 25,06}=40,4912 \quad kN; \] \[ M_{1} =\frac{Q_{s} s}{2}=\frac{Q_{fic} s}{4}=\frac{18,1198\cdot 112}{4}=507,3544 \quad kNcm. \]

10. Load-bearing capacity of the batten under bending:

\[ W_{s} R_{y} \gamma_{c} =48,167\cdot 24\cdot 1=1156,01 \quad kNcm. \]

11. Bending moment acting on the column chord and caused by the bending of the batten:

13. Strength of the chord under the combined action of the longitudinal force and bending moment in the batten plane without taking the plasticity into account:

\[ \frac{1}{R_{y} \gamma_{c} }\left( {\frac{N}{A}+\frac{M_{b} }{W_{b,z,\min } }} \right)=\frac{1}{24\cdot 1}\left( {\frac{1400}{70,4}+\frac{1014,7088}{37,269}} \right)=1,963. \]
