Yield strength is taken from the product standard for the governing thickness, so above 16 mm it is lower than the nominal grade. Simplified checks per EN 1993-1-1, without M+N+V interaction, without lateral-torsional buckling and without web shear buckling. Verify with a full design.

For angles the bending values refer to the axes parallel to the legs, which are not principal axes. A moment about one of them also bends the section about the other, so bending has to be resolved into the principal axes u and v and checked biaxially. Buckling already uses the weaker principal axis v.
