1.CB (detail available in chapter F ASD......use 1 for conservative)
2. KZ = it depends on your end conditions of major axis
3.KY, KX = 1 usually(depend on your minor axis bracing condition)
4.LY, LX: its the length in minor axes. it depends on your minor axis bracing
for example if we use purlin at 1.5 m spacing LX = 1.5
5.LZ = your maximum unbraced length in major axis
6. NSF - 1
7.ratio =1
UNF n UNL where are these...there is UNT & UNB
