Formulas: doubly symmetric and singly symmetric members subjected to minor-axis shear

Equation G6-1

where

$\begin{aligned} C_{v 2} & =\text { web shear buckling strength coefficient, as defined in Section G2.2 with } \\ & h / t_{w}=b_{f} / 2 t_{f} \text { for I -shaped members and tees, or } h / t_{w}=b_{f} / t_{f} \text { for channels, } \\ & \text { and } k_{v}=1.2\end{aligned}$

$b_{f}=$ width of flange, in. (mm)

$t_{f} \quad$ = thickness of flange, in. (mm)
