Load Deformation graph for different analysis type
First Order Elastic Analysis
• In a first-order elastic analysis, the equilibrium of
the frame in the undeformed geometry is
considered.
• The changes in the geometry of the frame due to
the loading are not accounted for, and changes in
the effective stiffness of the members due to axial
force are neglected.
• The effects of these on the first-order bending
moments shall be allowed for by applying moment
amplification factor, CY, CZ.
• If the moment amplification factor CY, CZ, is greater
than 1.4, a second-order elastic analysis in
accordance shall be carried out.
Second Order Elastic Analysis
• The analysis allows for the effects of the design
loads acting on the structure and its members in
their displaced and deformed configuration.
• These second-order effects shall be taken into
account by using either
a) A first-order elastic analysis with moment
amplification factor, provided the moment
amplification factors are not greater than 1.4;
b) A second-order elastic analysis
i. Critical load or K – factor approach
ii. Direct Analysis approach
• The analysis is formulated based on the
deformed configuration of the structure.
• When derived rigorously, a second-order analysis
can include both stability effects as,
1. The member curvature , P −δ effect and
2. The sidesway, P − Δ effect.
• The P- δ effect is associated with the influence of
the axial force acting through the member
displacement with respect to the rotated chord,
whereas the P − Δ effect is the influence of axial
force acting through the relative sidesway
displacements of the member ends.
P-δ & P-Δ effect in frames
• The bending moments in the frame determined from a first-
order analysis are termed as primary moments.
• The additional moments resulting from the P-∆ effect due to
joint sway and the P- δ effect due to member curvature are
called the secondary moments.
• The columns of the frame are subjected to bending and so, in
the deflected position, they have a curvature relative to the
member line joining the ends of the member. This also creates
second order moments and commonly termed the P-δ
(member curvature) effect.
• When the frame is free to sway, then there are additional
second-order effects due to the deflection of the member. The
relative sway of the ends of a member gives rise to additional
second-order moments. This is often called the P-∆ (member
rotation) effect.
Method 1: Second order effect applying Moment
Amplification Factor
• Moment magnification factor, β1: the moment
magnifier β1 is a P-δ moment amplification factor.
It accounts for first order moments associated
with the member curvature effects, so it applies
to columns in braced and unbraced frames as
well as trusses.
• Moment magnification factor, β2: the moment
magnifier β2 is a P-∆ moment amplification factor,
it amplifies to the member end moments
associated with lateral translation of the storey,
and this factor is therefore applied to columns in
unbraced frames only.
• The maximum design moment and axial load are
determined as

M r = β1M nt + β 2 M lt
Pr = Pnt + β 2 Plt
• Where Mnt = Maximum moment assuming storey sidesway is
prevented
• Where Pnt = Maximum axial load assuming storey sidesway is
prevented
• Where Mlt = Maximum moment caused by sidesway from either
lateral loads or unbalanced gravity loads
• Where Plt = Maximum axial load caused by sidesway from either
lateral loads or unbalanced gravity loads
Β1 is given as
Β2 is given as
