Example 27: Moment in an unsymmetrical closed frame
Description of the problem
To verify the mathematical model of
ELPLA
for analyzing unsymmetrical closed frames, moments in an unsymmetrical closed frame introduced by
Wang
(1983) (Example 15.10.1, page 574) are compared with those obtained by
ELPLA.
An unsymmetrical closed frame
ABCD
is considered as shown in Figure 63. The frame is subjected to a point load of
P = 24 [kN] at the center of the member BC
and a distributed load of q
= 2 [kN/m] on the member
AD. |
