Elastic Stability of Flexibly Connected Frames

Elastic Stability of Flexibly Connected Frames

Most stability analyses of building frames are based on the assumption that the beams and columns are rigidly connected. However, many beam-to-column connections exhibit nonrigid, flexible behavior. This paper presents a method for modifying the stability analysis for flexibly-connected frames. The...

Zusammenfassung:Most stability analyses of building frames are based on the assumption that the beams and columns are rigidly connected. However, many beam-to-column connections exhibit nonrigid, flexible behavior. This paper presents a method for modifying the stability analysis for flexibly-connected frames. The procedure is demonstrated for a simple portal frame, and observations are made on the effects of connection stiffness on frame buckling capacity.
