Rigid Frames in Architectural Structures: Types, Behavior, Analysis and Design - Prof. A. , Study notes of Environmental Science

A series of lecture notes from a university course on architectural structures i, focusing on rigid frames. Topics covered include the definition and characteristics of rigid frames, their behavior under load, types of rigid frames and bracing, and the analysis and design of rigid frames. The notes also mention the use of v & m diagrams and free body diagrams.

Rigid Frames •^

Rigid Frames

moments get redistributed

deflections are smaller - effective column lengths are shorter - very sensitive to settling

Braced Frames •

pin connections

bracing to prevent lateral movements

Rigid Frame Analysis

FBD & M

-^ opposite endreactions at joints M+ P Rigid Frames 20Lecture 27 Architectural Structures I ENDS 231 S2005abn

Rigid Frame Design •

loads and combinations^ –

usually uniformly distributed gravity loads

worst case for largest moments... - wind direction can increase moments Rigid Frames 21Lecture 27 Architectural Structures I ENDS 231 S2005abn

Rigid Frame Design •^

frames & floors^ –

rigid frame can have slab floors or slabwith connecting beams

-^

other^ –

slabs or plateson columns Rigid Frames 22Lecture 27 Architectural Structures I ENDS 231 S2005abn

Rigid Frame Design •

floors – plates & slabs^ –

one-way behavior

-^ side ratio > 1. -^ “strip” beam - two-way behavior -^ more complex
