[QUOTE="Baluncore, post: 6857128, member: 447632"] Any weakness is in the discontinuity of the web. The flanges do the work, the web keeps the flanges separated by a fixed distance. The strength is being considered, but the direction of the strength is not. There is no advantage in having strength in a useless direction. Where a 'T' is formed from two RSJs, the 'T'-cross will twist axially before the web of the 'T'-stem fails due to compression or tension in the flanges or gussets. [/QUOTE]
