is <strong>the</strong> distance from <strong>the</strong> component j in tension to <strong>the</strong> center <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

compression.<br />

The centre <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> compression is assumed to be in line with <strong>the</strong> mid-thickness <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> compression flange <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> connected beam (see Figure 4.31b).<br />
