Thanks for that. I just analysed the frame using the method and then combined the two frames with superposition.
Kinematic Method finds the collapse load for a frame.
Kleinlogel finds the bending moment for a frame under a given load (not collapse load) so this might not of been the correct...
Hi,
Im trying to assess the benefit of plastically analysing a portal frame against elastic analysis.
Therefore im currently trying to compare the difference between kinematic and kleinlogel for a simple portal frame analysis.
My thoughts are to assess the bending moments produced by each...
