Lecture

Structural Frames: Vertical Loads

Description

This lecture covers the analysis of the effect of vertical loads on superimposed frames, discussing the redistribution of forces within the structure due to the weight of upper floors. It also explores the behavior of Vierendeel vertical beams and presents a real-life example of a building designed with this structural system. The conclusions highlight the key aspects related to superimposed frames, Vierendeel beams, vertical and horizontal loads, and their combinations.
