Axial forces or bending moments are calculated using the unbraced lengths for buckling about the strong (y-axis) and weak (z-axis) axes of the selected compression members when the members are under the loads. General Design Parameter – Unbraced Length Design > General Design Parameter > Unbraced Length Member Assignment results can be displayed as Contours by checking on the ‘Member’ option in the Design tab of the Display dialog. When one member is divided into several elements, separate elements can be designed as one member using the Member Assignment function. General Design Parameter – Member Assignment Design > General Design Parameter > Member Assignment (4) Calculate the effective length factor, K Where, Ψ: Ratio of Σ(EI/lc) of compression members to Σ(EI/l) of flexural members in a plane at one end of a compression member. ` (3) Calculate the solution, X, in the stability equation below. Ψ is the ratio of Σ(EI/lc) of compression members to Σ(EI/l) of flexural members in a plane at one end of a compression member. Fixed joint: S = (1/1.5)* EI/L Hinge: S= (1/2.0)* EI/L Where, E: Modulus of elasticity I: Moment of inertia of section L: Span length of flexural member measured from center to center of joints Auto calculation procedure for effective length factor (1) Calculate the stiffness, S (=EI/L), of the members which are connected to the ‘Member a’.
