Error for SHAPE-THIN Cross-Sections in STEEL EC3

For a cross-section in my model, the STEEL EC3 add-on module uses the incorrect yield strength depending on the thickness of the structural component. What can be the cause?


Answer:

This effect usually occurs for SHAPE‑THIN cross-sections. When modeling cross-sections, make sure that the input for the heights and the thickness of the elements is not reversed (see the image).
