the width/thickness ratio of stiffened elements acting as webs of beams. As shown in the following figure for W and C
shapes h is the clear depth of the web and t its thickness. For rectangular HSS shapes h = H - 3 t where H is the
dimension of the section acting as web (typically the longer dimension) and t its thickness. For round shapes h = D the
outside diameter and t is the wall thickness. For standard sections h t values are given in the AISC tables. They are
more accurate and should be used when available.
AISC specifications do not give explicit WLB criteria for unstiffened web elements such as the stems of Tee shapesacting as webs in flexure. Also the web local buckling does not apply to I and C shapes bent about their minor axis.
Limiting values lpw and lrw. AISC Table B4.1b p. 16.1-17.

l f = b t
the width/thickness ratio of unstiffened elements acting as flanges of beams. For W and T shapes b is half the width of
the flange and t its thickness. For C shapes b is the full width of the flange and t its thickness. For angles b is the width
of the leg that is acting as flange and t its thickness.
The only section with stiffened elements explicitly covered in the specifications for FLB is rectangular HSS section.
Here b is based on the dimensions that is acting as the flange (typically the shorter dimension).
