Non-Linear and Failure Load Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Frames

Slender structural systems are built in order to design structures more economical and functional and to have more aesthetic appearances. However, displacements gain importance in delicate structures and therefore, usage of calculation methods in the structures takes into account both geometrical changes and the carrying capacity of the material after linear-elastic boundary. In this study, a method is proposed to calculate the failure loads and to analyse the reinforced concrete space frame systems. The numerical examples gathered from the literature survey are solved with this method utilising the prepared computer program and the comparable results are presented. The results show that the method is sufficiently accurate.
