Cross-sections may be classified as for

normal temperature design assuming
the same relative drop in 0.2% proof
strength and modulus of elasticity

Use the given rule.

Design resistance may be calculated

using formulae (4.7), (4.9) and (4.10)
which are based on assuming the same
relative drop in 0.2% proof strength and
modulus of elasticity

Use the given formulae.

Buckling resistance may be calculated

using formula (4.11) which is based on
assuming the same relative drop in 0.2%
proof strength and modulus of elasticity

Use the given formula.
