Description

In the construction industry, thanks to considerable progress in technology, as well as in more adequate methods of structural analysis, greater use is being made of complex structural systems. The objective of structural analysis is to provide an insight into the response of a structure to specified loads. Provided this information is available, the designer is then able to check if the structure is satisfactory with respect to design criteria. This book is devoted to the problems of structural performance of frame structures stiffened by wall fillers and bracings. Recently, refined methods of analysis have been developed which are capable of describing the complex behaviour of structural systems more accurately than ever before. This book incorporates these new methods, proposing both closed-form analytical techniques and versatile numerical approaches, in solving problems of structural performance efficiently and accurately. A method based on the exact elasticity theory, taking advantage of harmonic analysis is included, and particular attention is focused on methods which are intended for use as design tools.
