Approximate Methods of Analysis of Multi-storey Frames
• Analysis for vertical loads - Substitute frames-Loading
conditions for maximum positive and negative bending
moments in beams and maximum bending moment in columns
• Analysis for lateral loads - Portal method–Cantilever method–y
Factor method.

Why approximate analysis?
• Rapid check on computer aided analysis
y pp x y
• Preliminary dimensioning before exact analysis
Advantage? • Fasterg
Disadvantage? • Results are approximateg pp
• Approximate methods are particularly useful for
multi-storey frames taller than 3 storeys.

SUBSTITUTE FRAME METHOD
• Analyse only a part of the frame – substitute frame
SUBSTITUTE FRAME METHOD
Analyse only a part of the frame substitute frame
• Carry out a two-cycle moment distribution

• Analysis done for:y
• Beam span moments
• Beam support moments
• Column moments
• Liveload positioning for the worst condition
• For the same frame, liveload positions for maximum span
t t t d l tmoments, support moments and column moments may
be different
• For maximum moments at different points, liveload
positions may de different
