101 The design of members shall take into account the possible limits on the resistance of the cross section due to local buckling.

Guidance note:
Cross sections of member are divided into different types dependent of their ability to develop plastic hinges and resist local buckling, see Appendix A. In case of local buckling, i.e. for cross sectional type IV, DNV-RP-C201 may be used.
