Structural engineers analyze all types of structures to determine their displacements and internal forces under various load conditions. They choose between linear and non-linear analysis based on the...
This article presents guidance on how to allow for imperfections in analysis of RC frames according to EN 1992-1-1 (Eurocode 2). Structural frames in reality are always marred...

This article presents guidance on how to allow for imperfections in analysis of steel frame according to EN 1993-1-1 (Eurocode 3). At the end of this article, a...
This article presents an overview on the design of column to EN 1993-1-1:2005. However, since there are not much details in Eurocode 3 for columns in simple frames,...
Axially loaded steel members are subjected to external loads along the longitudinal axis of the member. These loads either induces pure tension or compression in these members, as...
Columns are mostly used to transfer loads from superstructure to foundation or to transfer members.
1.0 INTRODUCTION Before any structure can be designed, structural analysis must be performed to determine the effect of actions on the structure. However, before structural analysis can be...
