Abstract

Much progress has been made in recent years towards analytical modeling of the limit states behavior of structural steel frame members, connections and systems. Analysis methods that accurately represent the behavioral effects associated with both system and primary member design limit states have been suggested and referred to by many as “advanced analysis” approaches. By use of advanced analysis, the checking of certain limit-states equations in design standards is superceded. Specifically, in an advanced analysis, the checking of member and system stability is directly included within the analysis. If the global stiffness of the structural model is positive-definite at the design load levels, i.e., if the model is capable of supporting additional load at these levels, then the associated limit states are considered to be satisfied.
