1. From what information you have provided, it seems that the slab would be considered simply supported (pinned) by the walls. 2. ACI is likely the correct code document, but it would depend on where the structure is located and who has code juristiction. If you are in the US this should be the...

The beam is connected to a perpendicular beam that is composite with the top of a shear wall. The base of the shear wall and the footing the column is sitting are modeled as fixed because they are connected by a grade beam. The main reason for the moment connection is limit the amount of drift.

I am looking for alternatives to using the effective length factor alignment charts. I originally used the alignment charts, but the person that did the review of the calculation is looking for a buckling analysis. The lateral resistance is being provided by a moment connection between the beam...

What is the procedure for determining the k-value using a rational analysis? The column is pinned at the based and a single beam frames into the top of the column. The far end of the beam is simply supported. From my research the AISC specifications indicate that the value of k should be greater...
