Abstract
An efficient procedure and a microcomputer BASIC program have been developed for automatic generation of failure mechanisms for plastic analysis and optimal plastic design of low-rise, unbraced frames. In order to display/plot the failure mechanism by microcomputer an efficient scheme has been devised for calculating the displacements of the joints of the failure mechanism. The interactive microcomputer program developed in this work is an effective tool for failure analysis and optimal plastic design of frames. It can also be used as a powerful aid in teaching plastic analysis and design to structural engineering students.
