Abstract

Two simple unbraced frames are used to illustrate the application of the following four frame stability analysis methods: 1. The Second-Order Analysis Method (ANSI/AISC 360-05, Section C2.2a) 2. The First-Order Analysis Method (ANSI/AISC 360-05, Section C2.2b) 3. The Direct Analysis Method (ANSI/AISC 360-05, Appendix 7) 4. The Simplified Method (13th Ed. Steel Construction Manual page 2-12; AISC Basic Design Values cards)
