The braced frame design is explained in detail under this title.

...

Definitions

  • Tension members are structural elements that are subjected to axial tension. Tension members may consist of braces or truss members.

  • Tension members are structural elements that are subjected to axial compression. Compression members may consist of braces, truss members, and columns.

...

Design of Tension Members

  • Elements under the effect of subjected to axial tensile force are simple elements in terms of design, and since . Since they are under the effect of uniform axial tensile force, they act in accordance with by the stress-strain curve obtained in tensile tests.

...

Design of Compression

...

Members

  • There are 2 two main types of buckling, local and global buckling, in the elements under the axial compression force.

  • Global buckling is divided into 3 three categories: Flexural Buckling, Torsional Buckling, and Flexural Torsional Buckling.
