§5.5 Effect of Primary Bending and Plasticity on Frame Behavior.
No Primary Bending Primary Bending.
Note : a) Primary Bending does not significantly lower the critical load of a frame as long as stresses remain elastic. ( small displ. theory ) , Hence, Primary Bending is neglected in the determination of the critical load of framed structures. However, they should be reflected in design. Must be treated as beam – column.
For Example, AISC 8th ed. demands that when , amplification must be considered.
b)Inelastic Buckling.
i) If instability were the only factor leading to collapse, failure should occur at the critical load.
ii)If collapse were only due to plasticity effect, the frame will fail when it becomes a mechanism due to formation of plastic hinge.
iii) In the actual case, both instability and plasticity might be present and collapse occurs due to a interaction of these two at a load that is lower than either the critical load or the mechanism load.
To Predict this failure load ;
(Usually yields conservative load yet reasonably accurate.
