Abstract

The buckling loads of two welded and six riveted frameworks were calculated by the convergence criterion of the method introduced by Hardy Cross, Hon. M. ASCE. The stiffening effect of the gusset plates was taken into account and the reduction in the effective modulus caused by stresses exceeding the elastic limit was considered. Values of stiffness coefficients and of carry-over factors are presented in graphs for bars with gusset plates of various length. Tests of eight frameworks are described, and the experimental buckling loads are compared with those calculated from the theory. Satisfactory agreement was obtained for frameworks buckling in the elastic range.
