6. HAUNCH

The bending moments and plastic modulus ( and effective plastic

modulus as Appendix E where appropriate ) of the section are required
at end and quarter points for the stability checks, so these points are
also used to check the stresses along the haunch

Determine section properties of haunched beam - at four positions

across haunch:

Haunch geometry

The highest rafter bending moment occurs near mid span and it is
clear that the rafter is not critical at the end of the haunch . Therefore,
the calculation of elastic section properties for this case is approximate,
ignoring the middle flange . In cases where the haunch is more
critical, including the middle flange could prove worthwhile
