Sway Analysis of Rigid Jointed Portal Frame by Using Simplified Approach Method in Rotation Contribution Method (Kani's Method)

摘要

Analysis of rigid jointed portal frame involves lots of complication and tedious calculation by using displacement factor and conversion factor inKani's method. Displacement factor is required in Kani's method during the sway analysis. As support condition, modulus of rigidity, or height of portal change etcs, it becomes tedious to analysis the frame. In this work sway analysis of rigid jointed portal frame has been carried by using simplified approach method instead of tedious calculation of the displacement factor and conversion factor. In this work non sway analysis and sway analysis done separately and final moments are calculated by using ratio of sway force and arbitrary applied sway force..........
