n = F/(A py), where F is the Factored axial load, A is the gross cross sectional area and p y is the design strength of the section.
For values of n lower than n1, the reduced plastic modulus, S rx = Srx1 = K1-K2.n2, for major axis bending.

For values of n higher than n2, the reduced plastic modulus, S rx = Srx2 = K3(1-n)(K4+n), for major axis bending.
For values of n between n1 and n2, the reduced plastic modulus, S rx = Srx1 + (Srx2 -Srx1)(n-n1)/(n2-n1), for major axis bending.
For lower values of n, the reduced plastic modulus, Sry = K1 - K2.n2, for minor axis bending.

For higher values of n, the reduced plastic modulus, S ry = K3(1-n)(K4+n), for minor axis bending.

Hybox is a trademark of Corus. A fuller description of the relationship between Cold Formed Rectangular Hollow Sections (CFRHS) and the
Hybox range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 44.
+ These sections are in addition to the range of BS EN 10219-2 sections
(1) For local buckling calculation d = D - 5t and b = B - 5t.

eo is the distance from the centre of the web to the shear centre.
Cs is the distance from the centroidal axis to the shear centre.
Cy is the distance from the back of the web to the centroidal axis.
Ceq is the distance from the back of the web to the equal area axis.
n = F/(Ag.py), where F is the Factored axial load, Ag is the gross cross sectional area and p y is the design strength of the section.

For lower values of n, the reduced plastic modulus, Sr = K1 - K2.n2

For higher values of n, the reduced plastic modulus, S r = K3(1-n)(K4+n)

Advance range of sections manufactured by Corus is given on page A - 42.
Cy is the distance from the back of the web to the centroidal axis.
n = F/(Ag.py), where F is the Factored axial load, Ag is the gross cross sectional area and p y is the design strength of the section.
For axial load and moment inducing stresses of the same kind towards back of web, the reduced plastic modulus, S r = K1 + K2.n.(K3-n)
For axial load and moment inducing stresses of the opposite kind towards back of web, the reduced plastic modulus, S r = K1 - K2.n.(K3+n)
