The purpose of this paper is to propose a new efficient semi-analytical generator of initial stiffness designs for a moment-resisting steel building frame under seismic loading. Requirements on interstory drift under seismic loading are often active constraints in the usual structural design practic
A simple stiffness design formula including the effects of column elongation is derived for a slender steel building frame. The steel frame has prescribed column cross-sections obtained in the companion paper (Part 1) and the angles of nodal rotation at the beam ends related to the net deformation o
A methodology based on incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) is presented for the evaluation of structures with vertical irregularities. Four types of storey-irregularities are considered: stiffness, strength, combined stiffness and strength, and mass irregularities. Using the well-known nine-storey LA
