文档介绍：STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING
A sound and more modern Eurocode-based approach to design is the global
approach, as opposed to the traditional element-based design procedures.
The global approach considers the structures as whole units. Although large Buildings Multi-Storey Regular of Analysis Structural
frameworks and even whole buildings are now routinely analysed using
computer packages, structural engineers do not always plex
three-dimensional behaviour, which is essential to manipulate the stiffness and Structural
the location of the bracing units to achieve an optimum structural arrangement.
With coverage of theoretical background and worked examples, Structural
Analysis of Regular Multi-Storey Buildings offers useful tools to researchers
and practicing structural engineers. It can be used to carry out the planar stress, Analysis of
stability and frequency analysis of individual bracing units such as frameworks,
coupled shear walls and cores. In addition, and perhaps more importantly, it
can be used for the three-dimensional stress, stability and frequency analysis
of whole buildings consisting of such bracing units. Regular
The book includes closed-form solutions useful at the preliminary design
stage when quick checks are needed with different structural arrangements.
Their usefulness cannot be overemphasized for checking the results of a finite
element (computer-based) analysis when the input procedure involves tens
of thousands of items of data and where mishandling one item of data may Multi-Storey
have catastrophic consequences.
In addition to the critical load, the fundamental frequency, the maximum
stresses, and the top deflection of frameworks, coupled shear walls, cores and Buildings
their spatial assemblies, the book discusses the global safety factor of the
structure, which also acts as the performance indicator of the structure. MathCAD
