11.2.1 Where the deck transverse and bottom floor are supported by the pillar,
the pillar is to be verified by direct calculations considering the service, test
and vacuum conditions.
11.2.2 In between pillars, pillar brackets and pillar brackets, inner bottoms,
the shear area are to be verified by direct calculations considering the axial force
from the pillar. For permissible stresses, see
Pt 4, Ch 6, 12.2 Loads 12.2.1.
11.2.3 Where the length of the free edge of a bracket exceeds 50t mm, edge stiffening
is to be fitted or the thickness is to be suitably increased.
