Abstract
The various codal provisions for predicting the net section capacity of channels
are compared with experimental results available in literature. Based on the experimental
results and finite element simulations some key parameters have been identified and
parametric studies are conducted. Using the above results two forms of equations for
prediction of net section capacity of channel sections have been proposed and it is found to
predict the capacity with very good accuracy.
