Abstract
This paper presents nondimensional graphical solutions for the analysis and minimum weight design of various types of rectangular frames with simple or clamped supports subjected to compressive loadings. The solutions are generated by first expressing the weight and stability equation as nondimensional functions of the inertias. Employing the Lagrangian Multiplier Method results in the required functional relationships to define a minimum weight design. The analysis and design technique is illustrated by several examples.
