Structural Analysis

1. Draw the beam-column layout plan. Sketch the load distribution on slabs and calculate the load on the beams for the frame assigned.                                                                                                                      

2.Calculate the flexural rigidity of the members and the rotation factors at the joints.                                      

3. Considering the frames to be rigid jointed with no sway and with the stiffening effect of the cladding due to walls, not taken into account, perform analysis using Kani’s rotation contribution method and determine the final moments at the supports and the mid-span. Show the detailed calculations for the moments due to rotation contribution for two cycles and the final moments.

4Draw the deflected shape of the frame. Compute the member end forces.                                                                                                                                                                                                                

5. Sketch the moment diagrams for beams and columns and indicate the value of moments clearly.
