Dear friends.
I have checked some beam that needed for the truss structure.
The structure needs the height of the beam 450mm.

Since the truss wide enough, the beam is laying down, means the the minor axis is perpendicular to gravity axis.

I've read the AISC LRFD 1999 and AISC LRFD 2005. I think the LRFD 2005 is missing the equation AISC-LRFD 1999 Specification Appendix B5.3d. (A-B5-15) ] that compute Flexural buckling stress based on K L and lamda_c.

This equation gave more lower stress buckling capabitity of the slender compressive member.Other equation on slender moved in AISC 2005 including Torsional and flexural-torsional buckling stress.

I need your opinion..

This the example:
