Plastic Design of Steel Frames assesses the current status and
future direction of computer-based analyses of inelastic strength
and stability for direct frame design. It shows how design rules
are used in practical frame design and provides an introduction to
the second-order theory of inelastic frame design.
The book includes two computer programs on a diskette: one for the
first-order analyses and the other for the second-order plastic
hinge analysis of planar frame design. The second-order program can
be used to predict realistic strengths and stabilities of planar
frames, thereby eliminating the tedious task of estimating factors
for individual member capacity checks. Both programs include clear
input instructions. The diskette also contains the Fortran
source-code listing for the second-order plastic-hinge analysis,
enabling the user to customize the program. The programs will run
on an IBM PC-AT or equivalent machine with 640 kB of memory and 30
MB hard drive.
