Excessive deformation (yielding) - Excessive
deformation is prevented by limiting stresses on the
gross section to less than the yield stress. For yielding
on the gross section, the nominal strength is:
Tn = Fy Ag
and t=0.90

Fracture - Fracture is avoided by limiting stresses on
the net section to less than the ultimate tensile
strength For fracture on the net section

section, the nominal
strength is:
Tn = Fu Ae = Fu (UAn)
and t=0.75
(3.2.2)
where Ae is the effective net area, An is the net area
and U is the reduction coefficient (an efficient factor)
