	Case	Description of Element	Width-to-Thickness Ratio	Limiting Width-to-Thickness Ratio λr (nonslender/slender)
Unstiffened Elements	1	(1) Flanges of rolled I-shaped sections (2) Plates projecting from rolled I-shaped sections (3) Outstanding legs of pairs of angles connected width continuous contact (4) Flanges of channels (5) Flanges of tees	b/t = 4.5	$0.56 \sqrt{\dfrac{E}{F_y}}$ = 13.5
	2	(1) Flanges of built-up I-shaped sections (2) Plates or angles legs projecting from built-up I-shaped sections	b/t	$0.64 \sqrt{\dfrac{k_c E}{F_y}}$
