d = (20000*A_f)/(f_y*L_b)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Depth of Section - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Section is the depth of any section whether it can be a steel beam section or a steel column section.
Flange Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - Flange Area is space occupied by flange.
Yield Strength of Steel - (Measured in Megapascal) - Yield strength of steel is the level of stress that corresponds to the yield point.
Maximum Unbraced Length - (Measured in Meter) - Maximum Unbraced Length is the maximum distance along the member between brace points or points at which the member is braced against deflection in the given direction.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Flange Area: 4375 Square Millimeter --> 0.004375 Square Meter (Check conversion here)
Yield Strength of Steel: 250 Megapascal --> 250 Megapascal No Conversion Required
Maximum Unbraced Length: 1000 Millimeter --> 1 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
