Preface to Advanced Analysis and Design of Steel Frames by Guo-Qiang Li and Jin-Jun Li are

With benefits in excessive power, good ductility and quick fabrication and erection, metal frames are extensively used for industrial, industrial and residential buildings.

Presently, the widespread procedures for the structural design of metal frames worldwide are:

(1) to conduct linearly elastic structural evaluation to find out the resultants of structural members below varied actions;

and (2) to examine the resultants towards the restrict states of structural members specified within the codes, based mostly on the reliability principle for the restrict state of structural members.

Nevertheless, drawbacks of the present strategy exist within the following two features. Firstly, the traditional elastic evaluation of metal frames takes account of solely typical flexural, shear and axial deformations of body elements,

and can’t contemplate results similar to shear deformation of joint-panels, flexibility of beam-to-column connections, brace buckling and nonprismatic sections (tapered members).

Additionally, materials and geometric nonlinearities and imperfection (residual stress and preliminary geometric imperfection) can’t be concerned in linearly elastic evaluation.

Secondly, the structural members of a body is usually in an elasto-plastic state once they strategy restrict states, whereas the member resultants utilized in restrict state examine are taken from the linearly elastic evaluation of the body.

The incompatibility of the member resultants obtained in structural evaluation for restrict state examine and these in actual restrict state leads to unsure member reliability. To beat the downside talked about above, the idea of Advanced Design has been proposed.

Second-order inelastic evaluation is utilized in Advanced Design of metal frames to find out the structural final capacities, which considers all the results important for structural nonlinear habits and is termed as superior evaluation.

A big quantity of achievements have been made prior to now 20 years on superior evaluation of metal frames.

Nevertheless, within the view of structural design, the reliability analysis of structural programs needs to be included into superior evaluation to make the metal frames designed have sure system reliability. Such structural design with particular system reliability is termed as superior design.

Sadly, little progress was reported on this space. On this Advanced Analysis and Design of Steel Frames guide, an idea of reliability-based superior design is developed and proposed for metal frames.

The primary creator of this Advanced Analysis and Design of Steel Frames guide started to review the speculation of structural reliability design in 1982 when he was in Chongqing Institute of Structure and Engineering for his Grasp diploma and started to review the speculation of superior evaluation for metal frames in 1985 when he was in Tongji College for his PhD diploma.

The principle contents of this Advanced Analysis and Design of Steel Frames guide are literally the summarization of our analysis achievements in structural reliability design and superior evaluation of metal frames for over 20 years, together with the contribution from Ms. Yushu Liu and Ms. Xing Zhao, who’re the previous PhD college students of the primary creator.

Two components are included on this Advanced Analysis and Design of Steel Frames guide. Half One is superior evaluation for beam (prismatic beam, tapered beam and composite beam),

column, joint-panel, connection, brace, and shear beam components in metal frames, and strategies for stability evaluation, nonlinear evaluation and seismic evaluation of metal frames.

We want additionally to thank the next individuals in serving to to organize the manuscript of the Advanced Analysis and Design of Steel Frames guide, together with typing and checking the textual content and drawing all of the figures.
Half Two is reliability-based superior design for metal portal frames and multi-storey frames. We’re grateful for the recommendation from Prof. Jihua Li and Prof. Zuyan Shen who supervised the primary creator’s Grasp and PhD diploma research and information him to a sexy area in structural engineering.

They’re Ms. Yamei He, Mr. Wenlong Shi, Mr. Peijun Wang, Mr. Baolin Hu, Mr. Wubo Li, Mr. Dazhu Hu, Mr. Hui Gao, Mr. Chaozhen Chen and Mr. Yang Zhang. With out their help, the well timed final result of the Advanced Analysis and Design of Steel Frames guide would have been troublesome.

We additionally wish to thank our households for his or her steady help and understanding in our analysis offered on this Advanced Analysis and Design of Steel Frames guide for a few years at Tongji College.

Lastly, we wish to thank the Nationwide Pure Science Basis of China for steady help on the analysis, many outcomes of that are reported on this Advanced Analysis and Design of Steel Frames guide.
