A symmetry extension of Maxwell's rule for rigidity of frames is found. This rule subsumes and strengthens Maxwell's 1864 rule by requiring that the internal and external degrees of freedom of a pin-jointed structure are not only numerically equal, but are also equisymmetric. A number of special cas

In this paper, an algorithm is presented for the optimum design of unbraced rigid frames which takes into account the non-linear response of the frame due to the eect of axial loads. It considers sway constraints and combined stress limitations in the design problem. While the optimality criteria ap
Lateral sway is most likely to control the design of semi-rigid steel frames where the frame arrangements do not include any form of bracing. This paper investigates the sway behaviour of semi-rigid regular steel frames, i.e. frames having the same arrangement of beam and column sections at all leve
