IGNORE FRC FOR SHEAR CONNECTOR PITCH

 

Purpose:  Used in determining shear connector pitch in 6.10.10.1.2

 

-->    Given in LRFD girder input

 

FRC is used in 6.10.10.1.2 for the effect of bracing force on stud bracing, and by default is used as one of the two possible governing lateral effects on spacing -- the other being curvature. This condition causes only the effect of curvature to be considered.
