Appendix A to this publication presents:  WE1 A simply supported, laterally restrained beam.  WE2 A simply supported beam with intermediate lateral restraints. Other examples can be found at the Access Steel web site [4] . These include two interactive worked examples, where users may input their own variables to carry out a worked example to their specification.
