INTRODUCTION
1.1 Science and Technology
1
\There is a fundamental di erence between science and and technology. Engineering or technology is the making of things that did not previously exist, whereas science is the discovering of things that have long existed. Technological results are forms that exist only because people want to make them, whereas scienti c results are informations of what exists independently of human intentions. Technology deals with the arti cial, science with the natural." (Billington 1985)
1.2 Structural Engineering

Structural engineers are responsible for the detailed analysis and design of: Architectural structures: Buildings, houses, factories. They must work in close cooperation with an architect who will ultimately be responsible for the design. Civil Infrastructures: Bridges, dams, pipelines, o shore structures. They work with transportation, hydraulic, nuclear and other engineers. For those structures they play the leading role. Aerospace, Mechanical, Naval structures: aeroplanes, spacecrafts, cars, ships, submarines to ensure the structural safety of those important structures.

1.3 Structures and their Surroundings

3
Structural design is a ected by various environmental constraints: 1. Major movements: For example, elevator shafts are usually shear walls good at resisting lateral load (wind, earthquake). 2. Sound and structure interact: A dome roof will concentrate the sound A dish roof will di use the sound 3. Natural light: A at roof in a building may not provide adequate light.
Draft 1{2
INTRODUCTION
A Folded plate will provide adequate lighting (analysis more complex). A bearing and shear wall building may not have enough openings for daylight. A Frame design will allow more light in (analysis more complex). 4. Conduits for cables (electric, telephone, computer), HVAC ducts, may dictate type of oor system. 5. Net clearance between columns (unobstructed surface) will dictate type of framing.
1.4 Architecture & Engineering

4
Architecture must be the product of a creative collaboration of architects and engineers. 5 Architect stress the overall, rather than elemental approach to design. In the design process, they conceptualize a space-form scheme as a total system. They are generalists. 6 The engineer, partly due to his/her education think in reverse, starting with details and without su cient regards for the overall picture. (S)he is a pragmatist who \knows everything about nothing". 7 Thus there is a conceptual gap between architects and engineers at all levels of design. 8 Engineer's education is more specialized and in depth than the architect's. However, engineer must be kept aware of overall architectural objective. 9 In the last resort, it is the architect who is the leader of the construction team, and the engineers are his/her servant. 10 A possible compromise might be an Architectural Engineer.
1.5 Architectural Design Process

11
Architectural design is hierarchical: Schematic: conceptual overall space-form feasibility of basic schematic options. Collaboration is mostly between the owner and the architect. Preliminary: Establish basic physical properties of major subsystems and key components to prove design feasibility. Some collaboration with engineers is necessary. Final design: nal in-depth design re nements of all subsystems and components and preparation of working documents (\blue-prints"). Engineers play a leading role.
1.6 Architectural Design

Architectural design must respect various constraints: Functionality: In uence of the adopted structure on the purposes for which the structure was erected. Aesthetics: The architect often imposes his aesthetic concerns on the engineer. This in turn can place severe limitations on the structural system. Economy: It should be kept in mind that the two largest components of a structure are labors and materials. Design cost is comparatively negligible.

Buildings may have di erent functions: Residential: housing, which includes low-rise (up tp 2-3 oors), mid-rise (up to 6-8 oors) and high rise buildings. Commercial: O ces, retail stores, shopping centers, hotels, restaurants. Industrial: warehouses, manufacturing. Institutional: Schools, hospitals, prisons, chruch, government buildings. Special: Towers, stadium, parking, airport, etc.
1.7 Structural Analysis

14
Given an existing structure subjected to a certain load determine internal forces (axial, shear, exural, torsional or stresses), de ections, and verify that no unstable failure can occur. 15 Thus the basic structural requirements are: Strength: stresses should not exceed critical values: < f Sti ness: de ections should be controlled: < max Stability: buckling or cracking should also be prevented
1.8 Structural Design

16
Given a set of forces, dimension the structural element. Steel/wood Structures Select appropriate section. Reinforced Concrete: Determine dimensions of the element and internal reinforcement (number and sizes of reinforcing bars).
17 For new structures, iterative process between analysis and design. A preliminary design is made using rules of thumbs (best known to Engineers with design experience) and analyzed. Following design, we check for Serviceability: de ections, crack widths under the applied load. Compare with acceptable values speci ed in the design code. Failure (limit state): and compare the failure load with the applied load times the appropriate factors of safety. If the design is found not to be acceptable, then it must be modi ed and reanalyzed. 18 For existing structures rehabilitation, or veri cation of an old infrastructure, analysis is the most important component. 19 In summary, analysis is always required.

1.10 Structure Types

21
Tension & Compression Structures: only, no shear, exure, or torsion. Those are the most e cient types of structures. Cable (tension only): The high strength of steel cables, combined with the e ciency of simple
Structures can be classi ed as follows:
tension, makes cables ideal structural elements to span large distances such as bridges, and dish roofs, Fig. 1.2. A cable structure develops its load carrying capacity by adjusting its shape so as to provide maximum resistance (form follows function). Care should be exercised in minimizing large de ections and vibrations. Arches (mostly compression) is a \reversed cable structure". In an arch, exure/shear is minimized and most of the load is transfered through axial forces only. Arches are used for large span roofs and bridges, Fig. 1.3

rigid connections. Trusses are used for joists, roofs, bridges, electric tower, Fig. 1.4
1{7
Trusses have pin connected elements which can transmit axial forces only (tension and compression). Elements are connected by either slotted, screwed, or gusset plate connectors. However, due to construction details, there may be secondary stresses caused by relatively
Figure 1.4: Types of Trusses
Whereas r/c beams are mostly rectangular or T shaped, steel beams are usually I shaped (if the top anges are not properly sti ened, they may buckle, thus we must have sti eners). Frames: Load is co-planar with the structure. Axial, shear, exure (with respect to one axis in 2D structures and with respect to two axis in 3D structures), torsion (only in 3D). The frame is composed of at least one horizontal member (beam) rigidly connected to vertical ones1. The vertical The precursor of the frame structures were the Post and Lintel where the post is vertical member on which the lintel

Post and Beams: Essentially a support column on which a \beam" rests, Fig. 1.5, and 1.6. Beams: Shear, exure and sometimes axial forces. Recall that = Mc I is applicable only for shallow beams, i.e. span/depth at least equal to ve.

members can have di erent boundary conditions (which are usually governed by soil conditions). Frames are extensively used for houses and buildings, Fig. 1.7.
Figure 1.7: Basic Forms of Frames
Grids and Plates: Load is orthogonal to the plane of the structure. Flexure, shear, torsion.
In a grid, beams are at right angles resulting in a two-way dispersal of loads. Because of the rigid connections between the beams, additional sti ness is introduced by the torsional resistance of members. Grids can also be skewed to achieve greater e ciency if the aspect ratio is not close to one. Plates are at, rigid, two dimensional structures which transmit vertical load to their supports. Used mostly for oor slabs. Folded plates is a combination of transverse and longitudinal beam action. Used for long span roofs. Note that the plate may be folded circularly rather than longitudinally. Folded plates are used mostly as long span roofs. However, they can also be used as vertical walls to support both vertical and horizontal loads. Membranes: 3D structures composed of a exible 2D surface resisting tension only. They are usually cable-supported and are used for tents and long span roofs Fig. 1.8.

Architects: Start from overall design, and move toward detailed analysis. Emphasis on good understanding of overall structural behavior. Develop a good understanding of load transfer mechanism for most types of structures, cables, arches, beams, frames, shells, plates. Approximate analysis for most of them. Engineers: Emphasis is on the individual structural elements and not always on the total system. Focus on beams, frames (mostly 2D) and trusses. Very seldom are arches covered. Plates and shells are not even mentioned.

2.1 Introduction
1
The main purpose of a structure is to transfer load from one point to another: bridge deck to pier slab to beam beam to girder girder to column column to foundation foundation to soil. 2 There can also be secondary loads such as thermal (in restrained structures), di erential settlement of foundations, P-Delta e ects (additional moment caused by the product of the vertical force and the lateral displacement caused by lateral load in a high rise building). 3 Loads are generally subdivided into two categories Vertical Loads or gravity load 1. dead load (DL) 2. live load (LL) also included are snow loads.

2.2.1 Dead Load

Dead loads (DL) consist of the weight of the structure itself, and other permanent xtures (such as walls, slabs, machinery). 8 For analysis purposes, dead loads can easily be determined from the structure's dimensions and density, Table 2.1

For steel structures, the weight per unit length of rolled sections is given in the AISC Manual of Steel Construction. 10 For design purposes, dead loads must be estimated and veri ed at the end of the design cycle. This makes the design process iterative. 11 Weights for building materials is given in Table 2.2 12 For preliminary design purposes the average dead loads of Table 2.3 can be used:
2.2.2 Live Loads

13
Contrarily to dead loads which are xed and vertical, live loads (LL) are movable or moving and may be horizontal. 14 Occupancy load may be due to people, furniture, equipment. The loads are essentially variable point loads which can be placed anywhere.

In analysis load placement should be such that their e ect (shear/moment) are maximized. 16 A statistical approach is used to determine a uniformly distributed static load which is equivalent to the weight of the maximum concentration of occupants. These loads are de ned in codes such as the Uniform Building Code or the ANSI Code, Table 2.4.

17
For small areas (30 to 50 sq ft) the e ect of concentrated load should be considered separately. 18 Since there is a small probability that the whole oor in a building be fully loaded, the UBC code speci es that the occupancy load for members supporting an area A larger than 150 ft2 (i.e. a column with a total tributary area, including oors above it, larger than 150 ft2 ) may be reduced by R where
R = r(A ; 150) 23:1 1 + DL LL

where r = :08 for oors, A is the supported area ( 2 ) DL and LL are the dead and live loads per unit area supported by the member. R can not exceed 40% for horizontal members and 60% for vertical ones.

The primary design consideration for very high rise buildings is the excessive drift caused by lateral load (wind and

2. The slope of the roof is 8:15=6.4:12 which gives Cq = ;0:7 for both the windward and leeward sides. The vertical walls have Cq = 0:8 for the winward side and Cq = ;0:5 for the leeward one. 3. Thus the applied pressure on the roof is p = 0:7 (;0:7) 12:54 = -6.14 psf that is the roof is subjected to uplift. 4. The winward wall, the pressure is 0:7 0:8 12:54 = 7.02 psf , and for the leeward wall 0:7 (;0:5) 12:54 = -4.39 psf (suction) , 5. The direction of the wind can change and hence each structural component must be designed to resist all possible load combinations. 6. For large structures which may be subjected to large wind loads, testing in a wind tunnel of the structure itself and its surroundings is often accomplished.
2.3.2 Earthquakes
Buildings should be able to resist Minor earthquakes without damage Moderate earthquakes without structural damage but possibly with some nonstructural damages Major earthquakes without collapse but possibly with some structural damage as well as nonstructural damage This is achieved through an appropriate dynamic analysis. 31 For preliminary designs or for small structures an equivalent horizontal static load can be determined. 32 Actual loads depend on the following 1. Intensity of the ground acceleration (including soil/rock properties). 2. Dynamic properties of the building, such as its mode shapes and periods of vibration and its damping characteristics. 3. Mass of the building.

33 A critical factor in the dynamic response of a structure is the fundamental period of the structure's vibration (or rst mode of vibration). This is the time required for one full cycle of motion, Fig. 2.7. If the earthquake excitation has a frequency close to the one of the building, then resonance may occur. This should be avoided.

A low-rise building is enclosed along one side by a 100 ft-long clay masonary ( = 3:6 10;6 in./in./oF, E = 2 400 000 psi) bearing wall. The structure was built at a temperature of 60oF and is located in the northern part of the United States where the temperature range is between -20o and +120oF.
Solution:
1. Assuming that the wall can move freely with no restraint from cross-walls and foundation, the wall expansion and contraction (summer and winter) are given by LSummer = TL = (3:6 10;6) = =oF (120 ; 60)o F (100) (12) = 0.26 (2.33-a) LWinter = TL = (3:6 10;6) = =oF (;20 ; 60)oF (100) (12) = -0.35 (2.33-b)

2.5 Other Important Considerations

2.5.1 Load Combinations
44
Live loads speci ed by codes represent the maximum possible loads. 45 The likelihood of all these loads occurring simultaneously is remote. Hence, building codes allow certain reduction when certain loads are combined together. 46 Furthermore, structures should be designed to resist a combination of loads. 47 Denoting D= dead L= live Lr= roof live W= wind E= earthquake S= snow T= temperature H= soil: 48 For the load and resistance factor design (LRFD) method of concrete structures, the American Concrete Institute (ACI) Building design code (318) (318 n.d.) requires that the following load combinations be considered: 1. 1.4D+1.7L 2. 0.75(1.4D+1.7L+1.7W) 3. 0.9D+1.3W 4. 1.4D +1.7L+1.7H 5. 0.75(1.4D+1.4T+1.7L) 6. 1.4(D+T) whereas for steel structures, the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) code, (of Steel COnstruction 1986) requires that the following combinations be veri ed 1. 1.4D 2. 1.2D+1.6L+0.5(Lr or S) 3. 1.2D+0.5L (or 0.8W)+1.6(Lr or S) 4. 1.2D+0.5L+0.5(Lr or S)+1.3W 5. 1.2D+0.5L(or 0.2 S)+1.5E

6. 0.9D+1.3W(or 1.5 E)
49
2{21
Analysis can be separately performed for each of the basic loads (L, D, W, etc) and then using the principle of superposition the loads can be linearly combined (unless the elastic limit has been reached). 50 Loads are often characterized as Usual, Unusual and Extreme.
2.5.2 Load Placement

51
Only the dead load is static. The live load on the other hand may or may not be applied on a given component of a structure. Hence, the load placement arrangement resulting in the highest internal forces (moment +ve or -ve, shear) at di erent locations must be considered, Fig. 2.10.
Figure 2.10: Load Placement to Maximize Moments
2.5.3 Load Transfer

52
Whereas we will be focusing on the design of a reinforced concrete or steel section, we must keep in mind the following: 1. The section is part of a beam or girder. 2. The beam or girder is really part of a three dimensional structure in which load is transmitted from any point in the structure to the foundation through any one of various structural forms.
53
Load transfer in a structure is accomplished through a \hierarchy" of simple exural elements which are then connected to the columns, Fig. 2.11 or by two way slabs as illustrated in Fig. 2.12.
Under the action of the various forces and loadings described above, the structure must be able to respond with proper behavior, Fig. 9.1.

STRUCTURAL MATERIALS
Proper understanding of structural materials is essential to both structural analysis and to structural design. 2 Characteristics of the most commonly used structural materials will be highlighted.

3.1 Steel

3.1.1 Structural Steel

Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon. Its properties can be greatly varied by altering the carbon content (always less than 0.5%) or by adding other elements such as silicon, nickle, manganese and copper. 4 Practically all grades of steel have a Young Modulus equal to 29,000 ksi, density of 490 lb/cu ft, and a coe cient of thermal expansion equal to 0:65 10;5 /deg F. 5 The yield stress of steel can vary from 40 ksi to 250 ksi. Most commonly used structural steel are A36 ( yld = 36 ksi) and A572 ( yld = 50 ksi), Fig. 3.1 6 Structural steel can be rolled into a wide variety of shapes and sizes. Usually the most desirable members are those which have a large section moduli (S ) in proportion to their area (A), Fig. 3.2. 7 Steel can be bolted, riveted or welded. 8 Sections are designated by the shape of their cross section, their depth and their weight. For example W 27 114 is a W section, 27 in. deep weighing 114 lb/ft. 9 Common sections are: S sections were the rst ones rolled in America and have a slope on their inside ange surfaces of 1 to 6. W or wide ange sections have a much smaller inner slope which facilitates connections and rivetting. W sections constitute about 50% of the tonnage of rolled structural steel. C are channel sections MC Miscellaneous channel which can not be classi ed as a C shape by dimensions. HP is a bearing pile section.

M is a miscellaneous section. L are angle sections which may have equal or unequal sides. WT is a T section cut from a W section in two.

12
Rolled sections, Fig. 3.3 and welded ones, Fig3.4 have residual stresses. Those originate during the rolling or fabrication of a member. The member is hot just after rolling or welding, it cools unevenly because of varying exposure. The area that cool rst become sti er, resist contraction, and develop compressive stresses. The remaining regions continue to cool and contract in the plastic condition and develop tensile stresses. 13 Due to those residual stresses, the stress-strain curve of a rolled section exhibits a non-linear segment prior to the theoretical yielding, Fig. 3.5. This would have important implications on the exural and axial strength of beams and columns.

Steel loses its strength rapidly above 700 deg. F (and thus must be properly protected from re), and becomes brittle at ;30 deg. F 16 Steel is also used as wire strands and ropes for suspended roofs, cable-stayed bridges, fabric roofs and other structural applications. A strand is a helical arrangement of wires around a central wire. A rope consists of multiple strands helically wound around a central plastic core, and a modulus of elasticity of 20,000 ksi, and an ultimate strength of 220 ksi. 17 Prestressing Steel cables have an ultimate strength up to 270 ksi.

Stirrups which are used as vertical reinforcement to resist shear usually have a yield stress of only 40 ksi.

3.2 Aluminum
18
Aluminum is used whenever light weight combined with strength is an important factor. Those properties, along with its resistance to corrosion have made it the material of choice for airplane structures, light roof framing. 19 Aluminum members can be connected by riveting, bolting and to a lesser extent by welding. 20 Aluminum has a modulus of elasticity equal to 10,000 ksi (about three times lower than steel), a coe cient of thermal expansion of 2:4 10;5 and a density of 173 = 3 . 21 The ultimate strength of pure aluminum is low (13,000 psi) but with the addition of alloys it can go up. 22 When aluminum is in contact with other metals in the presence of an electrolyte, galvanic corrosion may cause damage. Thus, steel and aluminum in a structure must be carefully separated by means of painting or a nonconductive material.

3.3 Concrete
Concrete is a mixture of Portland cement2 , water, and aggregates (usually sand and crushed stone). An ideal mixture is one in which: 1. A minimum amount of cement-water paste is used to ll the interstices between the particles of aggregates. 2. A minimum amount of water is provided to complete the chemical reaction with cement. In such a mixture, about 3/4 of the volume is constituted by the aggregates, and the remaining 1/4 being the cement paste. 24 Smaller particles up to 1/4 in. in size are called ne aggregates, and the larger ones being coarse aggregates. 25 Contrarily to steel to modulus of elasticity of concrete depends on the strength and is given by

All concrete fail at an ultimate strain of 0.003, Fig. 3.1. Pre-peak nonlinearity is caused by micro-cracking Fig. 3.6. The tensile strength of concrete ft0 is about 10% of the compressive strength. Density of normal weight concrete is 145 = 3 and 100 = 3 for lightweight concrete.

Portland cement is a mixture of calcareous and argillaceous materials which are calcined in a kiln and then pulverized. When mixed with water, cement hardens through a process called hydration.

Figure 3.6: Concrete microcracking Coe cient of thermal expansion is 0:65 10;5 /deg F for normal weight concrete. 32 When concrete is poured (or rather placed), the free water not needed for the hydration process evaporates over a period of time and the concrete will shrink. This shrinkage is about 0.05% after one year (strain). Thus if the concrete is restrained, then cracking will occur3. 33 Concrete will also deform with time due to the applied load, this is called creep. This should be taken into consideration when computing the de ections (which can be up to three times the instantaneous elastic de ection).
31
3.4 Masonry
34
Masonry consists of either natural materials, such as stones, or of manufactured products such as bricks and concrete blocks4, stacked and bonded together with mortar. 35 As for concrete, all modern structural masonry blocks are essentially compression members with low tensile resistance. 36 The mortar used is a mixture of sand, masonry cement, and either Portland cement or hydrated lime.
3.5 Timber
Timber is one of the earliest construction materials, and one of the few natural materials with good tensile properties. 38 The properties of timber vary greatly, and the strength is time dependent. 39 Timber is a good shock absorber (many wood structures in Japan have resisted repeated earthquakes). 40 The most commonly used species of timber in construction are Douglas r, southern pine, hemlock and larch. 41 Members can be laminated together under good quality control, and exural strengths as high as 2,500 psi can be achieved.
37
For this reason a minimum amount of reinforcement is always necessary in concrete, and a 2% reinforcement, can reduce the shrinkage by 75%. Mud bricks were used by the Babylonians, stones by the Egyptians, and ice blocks by the Eskimos...

3.7 Joists
3{17
43 Steel joists, Fig. 3.8 look like shallow trusses (warren type) and are designed as simply supported uniformly loaded beams assuming that they are laterally supported on the top (to prevent lateral torsional buckling). The lateral support is often pro ded by the concrete slab it suppors. 44 The standard open-web joist designation consists of the depth, the series designation and the chord type. Three series are available for oor/roof construction, Table 3.3

For each span, the rst line indicates the total safe uniformly distributed load-carrying capacity in pounds per linear foot. Note that the dead load (including the one of the joist) must be substracted in order to determine the safe live load. The second line indicates the live load (pounds/linear foot) which will produce an approximate delection of L=360.

Case Study I: EIFFEL TOWER

The tower was built out of wrought iron, less expensive than steel,and Ei el had more expereince with this material, Fig. 4.1

The structure is essentially a tower, subjected to gravity and wind load. It is a relatively \light" structure, so dead load is small compared to the wind load. M gravity 3 To avoid overturning M wind had to be much higher than 1. This can be achieved either by: 1. Increase self weight (as in Washington's monument) 2. Increase the width of the base 3. Design support to resist tension. 4. Post-tension the support.

The tower is 984 feet high, and 328 feet wide at the base. The large base was essential to provide adequate stability in the presence of wind load. 5 We can assume that the shape of the tower is parabolic. If we take the x axis to be along the vertical axis of symmetry and y the half width, then we know that at x = 984 the (half) width y = 0 and at x = 0 the half width is 328=2 = 164, thus the equation of the half width is given by

The wind pressure is known to also have a parabolic distribution (maximum at the top), the cross sectional area over which the wind is acting is also parabolic (maximum at the base). Hence we will simplify our analysis by considering an equivalent wind force obtained from a constant wind pressure (force/length) and constant cross section Fig. 4.4: The pressure is assumed to be 2.6 k/ft, thus the lateral wind force is, Fig. 4.5 (4.5) Plat = (2:6) (984) = 2,560 acting at 984 2 = 492

Simplifying the three dimensional structure with 4 supports into a two dimensional one with two supports, the reactions can be easily determined for this statically determinate structure, Fig.4.6. Gravity Load

Thus the lateral moment caused by the wind is parabolic. At the base (x = 0), the maximum moment is equal to x)2 = (2:6) (984 ; 0)2 2 = 1,260,000 ; Mlat = p (L ; (4.8) 2 2 We observe that the shape of the moment diagram is also parabolic, just like the tower itself. This is not accidental, as nearly optimum structures have a shape which closely approximate their moment diagram (such as the varying depth of continuous long span bridges). To determine the resulting internal forces caused by the lateral (wind) moment, and since we have two supports (one under tension and the other under compression) we use 1 260 000 = 3,850 wind = Rvert = M (4.9) 6? d 328 Lateral Forces to be resisted by each of the two pairs.

Because the vertical load decreases with height, the axial force will also decrease with height. 14 At the second platform, the total vertical load is Q = 1 100 + 2 200 = 3 300 and at that height the angle is 11:6o thus the axial force (per pair of columns) will be

In the analysis of structures (hand calculations), it is often easier (but not always necessary) to start by determining the reactions. 2 Once the reactions are determined, internal forces are determined next nally, internal stresses and/or deformations (de ections and rotations) are determined last1 . 3 Reactions are necessary to determine foundation load. 4 Depending on the type of structures, there can be di erent types of support conditions, Fig. 5.1. Roller: provides a restraint in only one direction in a 2D structure, in 3D structures a roller may provide restraint in one or two directions. A roller will allow rotation. Hinge: allows rotation but no displacements. Fixed Support: will prevent rotation and displacements in all directions.

5.1.2 Equations of Conditions

18 If a structure has an internal hinge (which may connect two or more substructures), then this will provide an additional equation ( M = 0 at the hinge) which can be exploited to determine the reactions. 19 Those equations are often exploited in trusses (where each connection is a hinge) to determine reactions. 20 In an inclined roller support with Sx and Sy horizontal and vertical projection, then the reaction R would have, Fig. 5.2.

REVIEW of STATICS
If the reactions can not be determined simply from the equations of static equilibrium (and equations of conditions if present), then the reactions of the structure are said to be statically indeterminate. 23 The degree of static indeterminacy is equal to the di erence between the number of reactions and the number of equations of equilibrium (plus the number of equations of conditions if applicable), Fig. 5.3.
Figure 5.3: Examples of Static Determinate and Indeterminate Structures

24
Failure of one support in a statically determinate system results in the collapse of the structures. Thus a statically indeterminate structure is safer than a statically determinate one. 25 For statically indeterminate structures, reactions depend also on the material properties (e.g. Young's and/or shear modulus) and element cross sections (e.g. length, area, moment of inertia).
5.1.4 Geometric Instability

26
The stability of a structure is determined not only by the number of reactions but also by their arrangement. 27 Geometric instability will occur if: 1. All reactions are parallel and a non-parallel load is applied to the structure. 2. All reactions are concurrent, Fig. 5.4.

3. The number of reactions is smaller than the number of equations of equilibrium, that is a mechanism is present in the structure.
28 Mathematically, this can be shown if the determinant of the equations of equilibrium is equal to zero (or the equations are inter-dependent).
29 Examples of reaction calculation will be shown next. Each example has been carefully selected as it brings a di erent \twist" from the preceding one. Some of those same problems will be revisited later for the determination of the internal forces and/or de ections.

5.2 Trusses

5.2.1 Assumptions
Cables and trusses are 2D or 3D structures composed of an assemblage of simple one dimensional components which transfer only axial forces along their axis. 31 Trusses are extensively used for bridges, long span roofs, electric tower, space structures. 32 For trusses, it is assumed that 1. Bars are pin-connected
Victor Saouma
Draft 5.2 Trusses

2. Joints are frictionless hinges4 . 3. Loads are applied at the joints only.
33
5{9
A truss would typically be composed of triangular elements with the bars on the upper chord under compression and those along the lower chord under tension. Depending on the orientation of the diagonals, they can be under either tension or compression. 34 In a truss analysis or design, we seek to determine the internal force along each member, Fig. 5.5
Figure 5.5: Bridge Truss
5.2.2 Basic Relations
Sign Convention: Tension positive, compression negative. On a truss the axial forces are indicated as
forces acting on the joints. Stress-Force: = P A Stress-Strain: = E" Force-Displacement: " = LL Equilibrium: F = 0
5.2.3 Determinacy and Stability

Trusses are statically determinate when all the bar forces can be determined from the equations of statics alone. Otherwise the truss is statically indeterminate. 36 A truss may be statically indeterminate with respect to the reactions or externally indeterminate and/or statically indeterminate with respect to the internal forces that is internally indeterminate. 37 a 2D truss is externally indeterminate if there are more than 3 reactions.
35
In practice the bars are riveted, bolted, or welded directly to each other or to gusset plates, thus the bars are not free to rotate and so-called secondary bending moments are developed at the bars. Another source of secondary moments is the dead weight of the element.

REVIEW of STATICS
Since each joint is pin-connected, we can apply M = 0 at each one of them. Furthermore, summation of forces applied on a joint must be equal to zero. 39 For a 2D truss we have 2 equations of equilibrium FX = 0 and FY = 0 which can be applied at each joint. For 3D trusses we would have three equations: FX = 0, FY = 0 and FZ = 0. 40 If we refer to j as the number of joints, R the number of reactions and m the number of members, then we would have a total of m + R unknowns and 2j (or 3j ) equations of statics (2D or 3D at each joint). If we do not have enough equations of statics then the problem is indeterminate, if we have too many equations then the truss is unstable, Table 5.2.

Fig. 5.6 shows a truss with 4 reactions, thus it is externally indeterminate. This truss has 6 joints (j = 6), 4 reactions (R = 4) and 9 members (m = 9). Thus we have a total of m + R = 9 + 4 = 13 unknowns and 2 j = 2 6 = 12 equations of equilibrium, thus the truss is statically indeterminate.

45
This method should be used when all member forces should be determined. 46 In truss analysis, there is no sign convention. A member is assumed to be under tension (or compression). If after analysis, the force is found to be negative, then this would imply that the wrong assumption was made, and that the member should have been under compression (or tension). 47 On a free body diagram, the internal forces are represented by arrow acting on the joints and not as end forces on the element itself. That is for tension, the arrow is pointing away from the joint, and for compression toward the joint, Fig. 5.8.

Thus at D the shear is equal to 5 on our sign convention for the load, the slope of the shear must be equal to ;3 along C ; D. Thus the shear at point C is such that Vc ; 5 3 9(3) = ;31:78 or Vc = 13:22. The equation for the shear is given by (for x going from C to D) V = 13:22 ; 3x

Example 5-13: Frame Shear and Moment Diagram Hydrostatic Load

The frame shown below is the structural support of a ume. Assuming that the frames are spaced 2 ft apart along the length of the ume, 1. Determine all internal member end actions 2. Draw the shear and moment diagrams 3. Locate and compute maximum internal bending moments 4. If this is a reinforced concrete frame, show the location of the reinforcement.
Solution:
The hydrostatic pressure causes lateral forces on the vertical members which can be treated as cantilevers xed at the lower end. The pressure is linear and is given by p = h. Since each frame supports a 2 ft wide slice of the ume, the equation for w (pounds/foot) is w = (2)(62:4)(h) = 124:8h At the base w = (124:8)(6) = 749 = :749 Note that this is both the lateral pressure on the end walls as well as the uniform load on the horizontal members.

It is assumed that plane cross-sections normal to the length of the unbent beam remain plane after the beam is bent. 62 Except for the neutral surface all other longitudinal bers either lengthen or shorten, thereby creating a longitudinal strain "x.

5.4.2 Stress-Strain Relations
5{39
65 So far we considered the kinematic of the beam, yet later on we will need to consider equilibrium in terms of the stresses. Hence we need to relate strain to stress. 66 For linear elastic material Hooke's law states
x = E"x
(5.18)
where E is Young's Modulus. 67 Combining Eq. with equation 5.17 we obtain

x = ;E

5.4.3 Internal Equilibrium Section Properties

68
Just as external forces acting on a structure must be in equilibrium, the internal forces must also satisfy the equilibrium equations. 69 The internal forces are determined by slicing the beam. The internal forces on the \cut" section must be in equilibrium with the external forces.
5.4.3.1
70
Fx = 0 Neutral Axis
The rst equation we consider is the summation of axial forces. 71 Since there are no external axial forces (unlike a column or a beam-column), the internal axial forces must be in equilibrium. Z Fx = 0 ) (5.20) x dA = 0 where x was given by Eq. 5.19, substituting we obtain

The second equation of internal equilibrium which must be satis ed is the summation of moments. However contrarily to the summation of axial forces, we now have an external moment to account for,

5.4.4 Beam Formula

76
We now have the ingredients in place to derive one of the most important equations in structures, the beam formula. This formula will be extensively used for design of structural components. 77 We merely substitute Eq. 5.25 into 5.24,
M = I =
which shows that the curvature of the longitudinal axis of a beam is proportional to the bending moment M and inversely proportional to EI which we call exural rigidity. 78 Finally, inserting Eq. 5.19 above, we obtain x = ;E y (5.28) x = ; My M I = EI Hence, for a positive y (above neutral axis), and a positive moment, we will have compressive stresses above the neutral axis. 79 Alternatively, the maximum ber stresses can be obtained by combining the preceding equation with Equation 5.26

Case Study II: GEORGE WASHINGTON BRIDGE

6.1 Theory

Whereas the forces in a cable can be determined from statics alone, its con guration must be derived from its deformation. Let us consider a cable with distributed load p(x) per unit horizontal projection of the cable length (thus neglecting the weight of the cable). An in nitesimal portion of that cable can be assumed to be a straight line, Fig. 6.1 and in the absence of any horizontal load we have

Figure 6.1: Cable Structure Subjected to p(x)
Substituting into Eq. 6.1-b yields
H =constant. Summation of the vertical forces yields (+ ? ) Fy = 0 ) ;V + wdx + (V + dV ) = 0 (6.1-a) dV + wdx = 0 (6.1-b) where V is the vertical component of the cable tension at x (Note that if the cable was subjected to its own weight then we would have wds instead of wdx). Because the cable must be tangent to T , we have V tan = H (6.2) d (H tan ) = w d(H tan ) + wdx = 0 ) ; dx

d (tan ) = w ;H dx
(6.4)
But H is constant (no horizontal load is applied), thus, this last equation can be rewritten as
dv which when substituted in Eq. 6.4 yields Written in terms of the vertical displacement v, tan = dx the governing equation for cables ;Hv00 = w (6.5)
4 For a cable subjected to a uniform load w , we can determine its shape by double integration of Eq. 6.5
and the constants of integrations C1 and C2 can be obtained from the boundary conditions: v = 0 at x = 0 and at x = L ) C2 = 0 and C1 = ; wL 2 . Thus v = 2w (6.7) H x(L ; x) This equation gives the shape v(x) in terms of the horizontal force H , L ) we can solve for the horizontal force 5 Since the maximum sag h occurs at midspan (x = 2

H = wL 8h
(6.8)
we note the analogy with the maximum moment in a simply supported uniformly loaded beam M = 2 . Furthermore, this relation clearly shows that the horizontal force is inversely proportional Hh = wL 8 to the sag h, as h & H %. Finally, we can rewrite this equation as
h r def = L wL = 8r H

(6.9-a) (6.9-b)
Eliminating H from Eq. 6.7 and 6.8 we obtain
x2 + x v = 4h ; L 2 L
(6.10)
Thus the cable assumes a parabolic shape (as the moment diagram of the applied load). 7 Whereas the horizontal force H is constant throughout the cable, the tension T is not. The maximum tension occurs at the support where the vertical component is equal to V = wL 2 and the horizontal one to H , thus s s 2 2 p wL 2 = H 1 + wL=2 Tmax = V 2 + H 2 = + H (6.11) 2 H

6.2 The Case Study

The George Washington bridge, is a suspension bridge spanning the Hudson river from New York City to New Jersey. It was completed in 1931 with a central span of 3,500 ft (at the time the world's longest span). The bridge was designed by O.H. Amman, who had emigrated from Switzerland. In 1962 the deck was sti ened with the addition of a lower deck.
6.2.1 Geometry
A longitudinal and plan elevation of the bridge is shown in For simplicity we will assume in our analysis that the two approaching spans are equal to 650 ft. 11 There are two cables of three feet diameter on each side of the bridge. The centers of each pair are 9 ft apart, and the pairs themselves are 106 ft apart. We will assume a span width of 100 ft. 12 The cables are idealized as supported by rollers at the top of the towers, hence the horizontal components of the forces in each side of the cable must be equal (their vertical components will add up). 13 The cables support the road deck which is hungby suspenders attached at the cables. The cables are made of 26,474 steel wires, each 0.196 inch in diameter. They are continuous over the tower supports and are rmly anchored in both banks by huge blocks of concrete, the anchors. I 14 Because the cables are much longer than they are thick (large L ), they can be idealized a perfectly exible members with no shear/bending resistance but with high axial strength. 15 The towers are 578 ft tall and rest on concrete caissons in the river. Because of our assumption regarding the roller support for the cables, the towers will be subjected only to axial forces.

6.2.2 Loads

The dead load is composed of the weight of the deck and the cables and is estimated at 390 and 400 psf respectively for the central and side spans respectively. Assuming an average width of 100 ft, this

A BRIEF HISTORY OF STRUCTURAL ARCHITECTURE

If I have been able to see a little farther than some others, it was because I stood on the shoulders of giants.
Sir Isaac Newton
1 More than any other engineering discipline, Architecture/Mechanics/Structures is the proud outcome of a of a long and distinguished history. Our profession, second oldest, would be better appreciated if we were to develop a sense of our evolution.
7.1 Before the Greeks

Throughout antiquity, structural engineering existing as an art rather than a science. No record exists of any rational consideration, either as to the strength of structural members or as to the behavior of structural materials. The builders were guided by rules of thumbs and experience, which were passed from generation to generation, guarded by secrets of the guild, and seldom supplemented by new knowledge. Despite this, structures erected before Galileo are by modern standards quite phenomenal (pyramids, Via Appia, aqueducs, Colisseums, Gothic cathedrals to name a few). 3 The rst structural engineer in history seems to have been Imhotep, one of only two commoners to be dei ed. He was the builder of the step pyramid of Sakkara about 3,000 B.C., and yielded great in uence over ancient Egypt. 4 Hamurrabi's code in Babylonia (1750 BC) included among its 282 laws penalties for those \architects" whose houses collapsed, Fig. 7.1.
2
7.2 Greeks
5
The greek philosopher Pythagoras (born around 582 B.C.) founded his famous school, which was primarily a secret religious society, at Crotona in southern Italy. At his school he allowed neither textbooks nor recording of notes in lectures, on pain of death. He taught until the age of 95, and is

228. If a builder build a house for some one and complete it, he shall give him a fee of two shekels in money for each sar of surface. 229 If a builder build a house for some one, and does not construct it properly, and the house which he built fall in and kill its owner, then that builder shall be put to death. 230. If it kill the son of the owner the son of that builder shall be put to death. 231. If it kill a slave of the owner, then he shall pay slave for slave to the owner of the house. 232. If it ruin goods, he shall make compensation for all that has been ruined, and inasmuch as he did not construct properly this house which he built and it fell, he shall re-erect the house from his own means. 233. If a builder build a house for some one, even though he has not yet completed it if then the walls seem toppling, the builder must make the walls solid from his own means.
Figure 7.1: Hamurrabi's Code reported to have coined the term mathematics which means literally the \science of learning" (and also the word philosopher meaning \one who loves wisdom"). 6 Aristotle (384-322 B.C.) was Dean of the Lyceum, a college just outside the city gates of Athens, and was a man of universal ability. He is credited with having written in more than 25 di erent elds of knowledge. One of the most in uential men of early civilization. 7 A pupil of Aristotle was Alexander the Great (356-323 B.C.) who founded the city of Alexandria in 323. Upon his death, one of his generals Ptolemy I became Pharaoh and established a library. The library of Alexandria was founded with the private library of Aristotle as a nucleus, and later became the largest of the ancient world, containing about 700,000 scrolls. Many of these scrolls were subsequently brought to the attention of the western world through translations by the arabs. 8 Alexandria was also the seat of the rst university (with a reported enrollment of 14,000 students), and its rst professor of geometry was Euclid (315-250 B.C.). 9 The greatest of the Greeks was Archimedes (287-212) who was one of the greatest physicist of the ancient world and one of its greatest mathematician, Fig. 7.2. He is considered by many as the founder of mechanics because of his treatise \On Equilibrium". He introduced the concept of center of gravity. He refused to write about \practical stu " such as machines, catapults, spiral pumps, and others. It was one such invention (the lens) which kept the Roman armies at bay outside Syracuse for three years. When the city fell, he was supposed to have had his life spared. But the circumstances of his subsequent death are obscure. By some accounts he was killed by an ignorant soldier who disobeyed orders, and by other he was slain because he was too busy solving a mathematical problem to appear in front of the Roman consul and conqueror of Syracuse.

Science made much less progress under the Romans than under the Greeks. The Romans apparently were more practical, and were not as interested in abstract thinking though they were excellent ghters and builders. 11 As the roman empire expanded, the Romans built great roads (some of them still in use) such as the Via Appia, Cassia, Aurelia Also they built great bridges (such as the third of a mile bridge over the Rhine built by Caesars), and stadium (Colliseum). 12 One of the most notable Roman construction was the Pantheon, Fig. 7.3. It is the best-preserved
Figure 7.3: Pantheon major edi ce of ancient Rome and one of the most signi cant buildings in architectural history. In shape it is an immense cylinder concealing eight piers, topped with a dome and fronted by a rectangular colonnaded porch. The great vaulted dome is 43 m (142 ft) in diameter, and the entire structure is lighted through one aperture, called an oculus, in the center of the dome. The Pantheon was erected by the Roman emperor Hadrian between AD 118 and 128. 13 Marcus Vitruvius Pollio (70?-25 BC) was a Roman architect and engineer. He was an artillery engineer in the service of the rst Roman emperor, Augustus. His Ten Books on Architecture (Vitruvius

1960) is the oldest surviving work on the subject and consists of dissertations on a wide variety of subjects relating to architecture, engineering, sanitation, practical hydraulics, acoustic vases, and the like. Much of the material appears to have been taken from earlier extinct treatises by Greek architects. Vitruvius's writings have been studied ever since the Renaissance as a thesaurus of the art of classical Roman architecture, Fig. 7.4.

7.4 The Medieval Period (477-1492)

14
This period, also called the Dark Ages, was marked by a general decline of civilization throughout Europe following the decline and fall of the western Roman Empire. 15 The eastern Roman Empire on the other hand was to continue, and the center of Greek life had by then been transferred to Constantinople. This city exerted great in uence throughout Asia Minor. 16 Hagia Sophia, also Church of the Holy Wisdom, Fig. 7.5, was the most famous Byzantine structure in Constantinople (now Istanbul). Built (532-37) by Emperor Justinian I, its huge size and daring technical innovations make it one of the world's key monuments. The size of its dome though, 112 ft, was nevertheless smaller than the one of the Pantheon in Rome. 17 During that period, the Arabs carried the torch of knowledge, gave birth to algebra, translated some of the great books of the Library of Alexandria. 18 Architecture, was the most important and original art form during the Gothic period, (Anon. xx). The principal structural characteristics of Gothic architecture arose out of medieval masons' e orts to solve the problems associated with supporting heavy masonry ceiling vaults over wide spans. The problem was that the heavy stonework of the traditional arched barrel vault and the groin vault exerted a tremendous downward and outward pressure that tended to push the walls upon which the vault rested outward,

Figure 7.5: Hagia Sophia thus collapsing them. A building's vertical supporting walls thus had to be made extremely thick and heavy in order to contain the barrel vault's outward thrust. Medieval masons solved this di cult problem about 1120 with a number of brilliant innovations. First and foremost they developed a ribbed vault, in which arching and intersecting stone ribs support a vaulted ceiling surface that is composed of mere thin stone panels. This greatly reduced the weight (and thus the outward thrust) of the ceiling vault, and since the vault's weight was now carried at discrete points (the ribs) rather than along a continuous wall edge, separate widely spaced vertical piers to support the ribs could replace the continuous thick walls. The round arches of the barrel vault were replaced by pointed (Gothic) arches which distributed thrust in more directions downward from the topmost point of the arch. Since the combination of ribs and piers relieved the intervening vertical wall spaces of their supportive function, these walls could be built thinner and could even be opened up with large windows or other glazing. A crucial point was that the outward thrust of the ribbed ceiling vaults was carried across the outside walls of the nave, rst to an attached outer buttress and then to a freestanding pier by means of a half arch known as a ying buttress. The ying buttress leaned against the upper exterior of the nave (thus counteracting the vault's outward thrust), crossed over the low side aisles of the nave, and terminated in the freestanding buttress pier, which ultimately absorbed the ceiling vault's thrust. These elements enabled Gothic masons to build much larger and taller buildings than their Romanesque predecessors and to give their structures more complicated ground plans. The skillful use of ying buttresses made it possible to build extremely tall, thin-walled buildings whose interior structural system of columnar piers and ribs reinforced an impression of soaring verticality. 19 Vilet-Le-Duc classical book, (le Duc 1977) provided an in depth study of Gothic architecture.
7.5 The Renaissance

7.5.1 Leonardo da Vinci 1452-1519

21 Leonardo da Vinci was the most outstanding personality of that period (and of human civilization for that matter). He was not only a great artist (Mona Lisa), but also a great scientist and engineer. 22 He did not write books, but much information was found in his notebooks, one the most famous (Codex Leicester) was recently purchased by Bill Gates whose company Corbis made a CD-ROM from it. 23 He was greatly interested in mechanics, (Timoshenko 1982), and in one of his notes he states \Mechanics is the Paradise of mathematical science because here we come to the fruits of mathematics."
He was the rst to explore concepts of mechanics, since Archimedes, using a scienti c approach. He applied the principle of virtual displacements to analyze various systems of pulleys and levers. He appears to have developped a correct idea of the thrust produced by an arch. 25 In one of his manuscripts there is a sketch of two members on which a vertical load Q is acting and the question is asked: What forces are needed at a and b to have equilibrium? (From the dotted line parallelogram, in the sketch, it can be concluded that he had the right answer). 26 Leonardo also studied the strength of structural materials experimentally. He tried to determine the tensile strength of an iron wire of di erent length (size e ect). 27 He also studied the load carrying capacity of a simply supported uniformly loaded beam and concluded that \the strength of the beam supported at both ends varies inversely as the length and directly as the width" (is this correct? how about the depth of the beam?). 28 For a cantilevered beam he stated \If a beam 2 braccia long supports 100 libre, a beam 1 braccia long will support 200" Finally, Leonardo brie y studied the strength of columns and found that \it varies inversely as its length, but directly as some ratio of its cross section."
24
Leonardo's was the rst indeed to attempt to apply statics in nding the forces acting in members of structures, friction and the rst to perform experiments to determine the strength of structural materials. 30 Interestingly, here is Leonardo's de nition of force, (Penvenuto 1991) \I say that force is a spiritual virtue, an invisible power, which, through accidental exterior violence, is caused by motion and placed and infused into bodies which are thus] removed and deviated from their natural use, giving to such virtue an active life of marvelous power".
29 31
Unfortunatly, these important ndings, were buried in his notes, and engineers in the fteenth and sixteenth centuries continued, as in the Roman era, to x dimensions of structural elements by relying on experience and judgment.
7.5.2 Brunelleschi 1377-1446

32
Brunelleschi was a Florentine architect and one of the initiators of the Italian Renaissance. His revival of classical forms and his championing of an architecture based on mathematics, proportion, and perspective make him a key artistic gure in the transition from the Middle Ages to the modern era.

33 He was born in Florence in 1377 and received his early training as an artisan in silver and gold. In 1401 he entered, and lost, the famous design competition for the bronze doors of the Florence Baptistery. He then turned to architecture and in 1418 received the commission to execute the dome of the un nished Gothic Cathedral of Florence, also called the Duomo. The dome, Fig. 7.6 a great innovation both
Figure 7.6: Florence's Cathedral Dome artistically and technically, consists of two octagonal vaults, one inside the other. Its shape was dictated by its structural needs one of the rst examples of architectural functionalism. Brunelleschi made a design feature of the necessary eight ribs of the vault, carrying them over to the exterior of the dome, where they provide the framework for the dome's decorative elements, which also include architectural reliefs, circular windows, and a beautifully proportioned cupola. This was the rst time that a dome created the same strong e ect on the exterior as it did on the interior. 34 Completely di erent from the emotional, elaborate Gothic mode that still prevailed in his time, Brunelleschi's style emphasized mathematical rigor in its use of straight lines, at planes, and cubic spaces. This set the tone for many of the later buildings of the Florentine Renaissance. 35 His in uence on his contemporaries and immediate followers was very strong and has been felt even in the 20th century, when modern architects came to revere him as the rst great exponent of rational architecture.

He was born in Genoa, the son of a Florentine noble. He received the best education available in the 15th century. He was pro cient in Greek, mathematics, and the natural sciences. As a poet, a philosopher, and one of the rst organists of his day, Alberti greatly in uenced his contemporaries. 38 Alberti's architectural training began with the study of antique monuments during his rst stay in Rome. Subsequently he joined the papal court in Florence, where he became intensely involved with the cultural life of the city. Probably at this time he became familiar with the mathematical laws of linear perspective, which Brunelleschi had studied. 39 Alberti took took an active part in the literary life of Florence and championed the literary use of Italian rather than the use of Latin. 40 In the late 1440s, Alberti began to work as an architect. Although his buildings rank among the best architecture of the Renaissance, he was a theoretical rather than a practical architect. He furnished the plans of his buildings but never supervised their construction. His De Re Aedi catoria (1485) was the rst printed work on architecture of the Renaissance. He also wrote books on sculpture, the family, government, and literature.
7.5.4 Palladio 1508-1580

41
Andrea Palladio was one of the most in uential architects in European history. He was born in Padua, and trained as a stonemason, he later joined the poet Trissino who took him to Rome, where Palladio studied and measured Roman architectural ruins he also absorbed the treatises of Vitruvius. One outcome of these studies was Palladio's Antiquities of Rome (1554) (Palladio 19xx), the principal guidebook to Roman ruins for the next two centuries. 42 In and near Vicenza he designed many residences and public buildings. The best known of these are the Barbarano, Chieregati, Tiene, Porto, and Valmarana palaces and the Villa Capri, or Villa Rotunda. Although the historical antecedents of Palladio's style are the classically Roman-in uenced High Renaissance works of architects such as the Italian Donato Bramante, Palladio's own use of classical motifs came through his direct, extensive study of Roman architecture. He freely recombined elements of Roman buildings as suggested by his own building sites and by contemporary needs, Fig. 7.7 At the same time he shared the Renaissance concern for harmonious proportion, and his facades have a noteworthy simplicity almost austerity and repose. 43 Palladio was the author of an important scienti c treatise on architecture, I Quattro Libri dell'Architettura, (Palladio 19xx) which was widely translated and in uenced many later architects. Its precise rules and formulas were widely utilized, especially in England, and were basic to the Palladian style, adopted by Inigo Jones, Christopher Wren, and other English architects, which preceded and in uenced the neoclassical architecture of the Georgian Style.
7.5.5 Stevin
Stevin, Fig. 7.8, was a Dutch mathematician and engineer who founded the science of hydrostatics by showing that the pressure exerted by a liquid upon a given surface depends on the height of the liquid and the area of the surface. 45 Stevin was a bookkeeper in Antwerp, then a clerk in the tax o ce at Brugge. After this he moved to Leiden where he rst attended the Latin school, then he entered the University of Leiden in 1583 (at the age of 35). While quartermaster in the Dutch army, Stevin invented a way of ooding the lowlands in the path of an invading army by opening selected sluices in dikes. He was an outstanding engineer who

built windmills, locks and ports. He advised the Prince Maurice of Nassau on building forti cations for the war against Spain. 46 The author of 11 books, Stevin made signi cant contributions to trigonometry, geography, forti cation, and navigation. Inspired by Archimedes, Stevin wrote important works on mechanics. In his book De Beghinselen der Weeghconst in 1586 appears the theorem of the triangle of forces giving impetus to statics. In 1586 (3 years before Galileo) he reported that di erent weights fell a given distance in the same time.

47
Figure 7.9: Galileo from medieval polyphony to harmonic modulation, Galileo came to see Aristotelian physical theology as limiting scienti c inquiry. 48 In 1581 he entered the University of Pisa to study medicine, but he soon turned to philosophy and mathematics, leaving the university without a degree in 1585. For a time he tutored privately and wrote on hydrostatics and natural motions, but he did not publish. 49 In 1589 he became professor of mathematics at Pisa, where he is reported to have shown his students the error of Aristotle's belief that speed of fall is proportional to weight, by dropping two objects of di erent weight simultaneously from the Leaning Tower, thus modern dynamics was born. His contract was not renewed in 1592, probably because he contradicted Aristotelian professors. The same year, he was appointed to the chair of mathematics at the University of Padua, where he remained until 1610. 50 In Padua he achieved great fame, and lecture halls capable of containing 2,000 students from all over Europe were used. In 1592 he wrote Della Scienza Meccanica in which various problems of statics were treated using the principle of virtual displacement. He subsequently became interested in astronomy and built one of the rst telescope through which he saw Jupiter and became an ardent proponent of the Copernican theory (which stated that the planets circle the sun as opposed to the Aristotelian and Ptolemaic assumptions that it was the sun which was circling Earth). This theory being condemned by the church, he received a semio cial warning to avoid theology and limit himself to physical reasoning. When he published his books dealing with the two ways of regarding the universe (which clearly favored the Copernican theory) he was called to Rome by the Inquisition, condemned and had to read his recantation (At the end of his process he murmured the famous e pur se muove).

When he was almost seventy years old, his life shattered by the Inquisition, he retired to his villa near Florence and wrote his nal book, Discourses Concerning Two New Sciences, (Galilei 1974), Fig. 7.10. His rst science was the study of the forces that hold objects together -the dialogue taking place

His second science concerned local motions - laws governing the trajectory of projectiles. A portion of the book dealing with the mechanical properties of structural materials and with the strength of beams. Strength of Materials as a discipline was born. 52 He observed that if we make structures geometrically similar, then with increase of the dimensions they become weaker and weaker, One cannot reason from the small to the large, because many mechanical devices succeed on a small scale that cannot exist in great size. 53 It is interesting to note that when Galileo studied the strength of a cantilevered (wooden) beam with an applied load at the end, Fig. 7.11, he failed to properly understand the exact internal stress/strain
Figure 7.11: \Galileo's Beam" distribution. He determined that the stress is constant throughout the cross section (whereas as we know it varies linearly). 54 Galileo's lifelong struggle to free scienti c inquiry from restriction by philosophical and theological interference stands beyond science. Since the full publication of Galileo's trial documents in the 1870s,

entire responsibility for Galileo's condemnation has customarily been placed on the Roman Catholic church. This conceals the role of the philosophy professors who rst persuaded theologians to link Galileo's science with heresy. An investigation into the astronomer's condemnation, calling for its reversal, was opened in 1979 by Pope John Paul II. In October 1992 a papal commission acknowledged the Vatican's error.

7.6.1 Hooke, 1635-1703
55
Hooke was best known for his study of elasticity but also original contributions to many other elds of science. 56 Hooke was born on the Isle of Wight and educated at the University of Oxford. He served as assistant to the English physicist Robert Boyle and assisted him in the construction of the air pump. In 1662 Hooke was appointed curator of experiments of the Royal Society and served in this position until his death. He was elected a fellow of the Royal Society in 1663 and was appointed Gresham Professor of Geometry at Oxford in 1665. After the Great Fire of London in 1666, he was appointed surveyor of London, and he designed many buildings. 57 Hooke anticipated some of the most important discoveries and inventions of his time but failed to carry many of them through to completion. He formulated the theory of planetary motion as a problem in mechanics, and grasped, but did not develop mathematically, the fundamental theory on which Newton formulated the law of gravitation. 58 His most important contribution was published in 1678 in the paper De Potentia Restitutiva. It contained results of his experiments with elastic bodies, and was the rst paper in which the elastic properties of material was discused, Fig. 7.12.

Then compare the several strtchings of the said string, and you will nd that they will always bear the same proportions one to the other that the weights do that made them". This became Hooke's Law = E". 59 Because he was concerned about patent rights to his invention, he did not publish his law when rst discovered it in 1660. Instead he published it in the form of an anagram \ceiinosssttuu" in 1676 and the solution was given in 1678.

Born on christmas day in the year of Galileo's death, Newton, Fig. 7.13 was Professor of Mathematics
Figure 7.13: Isaac Newton at Cambridge university. 61 In 1684 Newton's solitude was interrupted by a visit from Edmund Halley, the British astronomer and mathematician, who discussed with Newton the problem of orbital motion. Newton had also pursued the science of mechanics as an undergraduate, and at that time he had already entertained basic notions about universal gravitation. As a result of Halley's visit, Newton returned to these studies. 62 During the following two and a half years, Newton established the modern science of dynamics by formulating his three laws of motion. Newton applied these laws to Kepler's laws of orbital motion formulated by the German astronomer Johannes Kepler and derived the law of universal gravitation. Newton is probably best known for discovering universal gravitation, which explains that all bodies in space and on earth are a ected by the force called gravity. He published this theory in his book Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica or simply Principia, in 1687, Fig. 7.14. This book marked a turning point in the history of science. 63 The Principia's appearance also involved Newton in an unpleasant episode with the English philosopher and physicist Robert Hooke. In 1687 Hooke claimed that Newton had stolen from him a central

However, most historians do not accept Hooke's charge of plagiarism. 64 Newton also engaged in a violent dispute with Leibniz over priority in the invention of calculus. Newton used his position as president of the Royal Society to have a committee of that body investigate the question, and he secretly wrote the committee's report, which charged Leibniz with deliberate plagiarism. Newton also compiled the book of evidence that the society published. The e ects of the quarrel lingered nearly until his death in 1727. 65 In addition to science, Newton also showed an interest in alchemy, mysticism, and theology. Many pages of his notes and writings particularly from the later years of his career are devoted to these topics. However, historians have found little connection between these interests and Newton's scienti c work.
7.6.3 Bernoulli Family 1654-1782

The Bernouilli family originally lived in Antwerp, but because of religious persecution, they left Holland and settled in Basel. Near the end of the seventeenth century this family produced outstanding mathematicians for more than a hundred years. Jacob and John were brothers. John was the father of Daniel, and Euler his pupil. 67 Whereas Galileo (and Mariotte) investigated the strength of beams (Strength), Jacob Bernoulli (16541705) made calculation of their de ection (Sti ness) and did not contribute to our knowledge of physical properties. Jacob Bernouilli is also credited in being the rst to to have assumed that a bf plane section of a beam remains plane during bending, but assumed rotation to be with respect to the lower ber (as Galileo did) and this resulted in an erroneous solution (where is the exact location of the axis of rotation?). He also showed that the curvature at any point along a beam is proportional to the curvature of the de ection curve. 68 Daniel Bernoulli (1700-1782) rst postulated that a force can be decomposed into its equivalent (\Potentiis quibuscunque possunt substitui earundem aequivalentes". Another hypothesis de ned the sum of two \conspiring" forces applied to the same point. According to Bernoulli, this \necessary truth" follows from the metaphysical principle that the whole equalts the sum of its parts, (Penvenuto 1991).

At age 20 he moved to the Russian Academy of Sciences in St Petersburg along with the two sons of John Bernoulli (Nicholas and Daniel). He was appointed professor of physics in 1730 and professor of mathematics in 1733. In 1741 he became professor of mathematics at the Berlin Academy of Sciences at the urging of the Prussian king Frederick the Great. Euler returned to St. Petersburg in 1766, remaining there until his death. 70 Although hampered from his late 20s by partial loss of vision and in later life by almost total blindness, Euler produced a number of important mathematical works and hundreds of mathematical and scienti c memoirs. In his Introduction to the Analysis of In nities, Euler gave the rst full analytical treatment of algebra, the theory of equations, trigonometry, and analytical geometry. In this work he treated the series expansion of functions and formulated the rule that only convergent in nite series can properly be evaluated. He also discussed three-dimensional surfaces and proved that the conic sections are represented by the general equation of the second degree in two dimensions. Other works dealt with calculus, including the calculus of variations, number theory, imaginary numbers, and determinate and indeterminate algebra. Euler, although principally a mathematician, made contributions to astronomy, mechanics, optics, and acoustics. 71 In Russia he wrote a famous book in mechanics in which instead of applying the geometrical methods used by Newton, he introduced analytical methods. 72 As a mathematician, Euler was interested principally in the geometrical forms of elastic curves. He approached problems from the point of view of variational calculus and in the introduction of his book Methodus inveniendi lineas curva ... he stated Since the fabric of the universe is most perfect, and is the work of a most wise Creator, nothing whatsover takes place in the universe in which some relation o maximum an minimum does not appear. Therefore there is absolutely no doubt that every e ect in the universe can be explained as satisfactorily from nal causes, by the aid of the method of maxima and minima, as it can from the e ective causes themselves...

Figure 7.16: Coulomb analysis of the ber stresses in exed beam with rectangular cross section (Sur une Application des Regles de maximis et minimis a quelques problemes de statique relatifs a l'architecture in 1773). He used Hooke's law, placed the neutral axis in its exact position, developed the equilibrium of forces on the cross section with external forces, and then correcly determined the stresses. He also worked on friction (\Coulomb friction") and on earth pressure. 75 Coulomb did also research on magnetism, friction, and electricity. In 1777 he invented the torsion balance for measuring the force of magnetic and electrical attraction. With this invention, Coulomb was able to formulate the principle, now known as Coulomb's law, governing the interaction between electric charges. In 1779 Coulomb published the treatise Theorie des machines simples (Theory of Simple Machines), an analysis of friction in machinery. After the war Coulomb came out of retirement and assisted the new government in devising a metric system of weights and measures. The unit of quantity used to measure electrical charges, the coulomb, was named for him. 76 Navier (1785-1836) Navier was educated at the Ecole Polytechnique and became a professor there in 1831. Whereas the famous memoir of Coulomb (1773) contained the correct solution to numerous important problems in mechanics of materials, it took engineers more than forty years to understand them correctly and to use them in practical application 77 In 1826 he published his Lecons (lecture notes) which is considered the rst great textbook in mechanics for engineering. In it he developed the rst general theory of elastic solids as well as the rst systematic treatment of the theory of structures. 78 It should be noted that no clear division existed between the theory of elasticity and the theory of structures until about the middle of the nineteenth century (Coulomb and Navier would today be considered professional structural engineers). 79 Three other structural engineers who pioneered the development of the theory of elasticity from that point on were Lame, Clapeyron and de Saint-Venant. Lam'e published the rst book on elasticity in 1852, and credited Clapeyron for the theorem of equality between external and internal work. de Saint-Venant was perhaps the greatest elasticians who according to Southwell \... combined with high mathematical ability an essentially practical outlook which gave direction to all his work". In 1855-6 he published his classical work on torsion, exure, and shear stresses.

7.8.3 Sullivan 1856-1924

Sullivan wan an American architect, whose brilliant early designs for steel-frame skyscraper construction led to the emergence of the skyscraper as the distinctive American building type. Through his own work, especially his commercial structures, and as the founder of what is now known as the Chicago school of architects, he exerted an enormous in uence on 20th-century American architecture. His most famous pupil was the architect Frank Lloyd Wright, who acknowledged Sullivan as his master. 85 After studying architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, he spent a year in Paris at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts and in the o ce of a French architect. Settling in Chicago in 1875, he was employed as a draftsman, then in 1881 formed a partnership with Dankmar Adler. Together they produced more than 100 buildings. 86 Adler secured the clients and handled the engineering and acoustical problems, while Sullivan concerned himself with the architectural designs. One of their earliest and most distinguished joint enterprises was the ten-story Auditorium Building (1886-89) in Chicago. This famous showplace incorporated a hotel, an o ce building, and a theater renowned for its superb acoustics. The Wainwright Building, also ten stories high, with a metal frame, was completed in 1891 in Saint Louis, Missouri. In 1895 the Sullivan-Adler partnership was dissolved, leading to a decline in Sullivan's practice. The Carson Pirie Scott (originally Schlesinger and Meyer) Department Store, Chicago, regarded by many as Sullivan's masterpiece, was completed in 1904. 87 His famous axiom, Form follows function became the touchstone for many in his profession. Sullivan, however, did not apply it literally. He meant that an architect should consider the purpose of the building as a starting point, not as a rigidly limiting stricture. 88 He also had tremendous respect for the natural world which played an enormous role in forging his theories about architecture (he spent all of his rst summers on his grandparents' farm in Massachusetts where he developed this love and respect for nature) expressed in his Autobiography of an Idea), 1924).

He then demonstrated the practicability of steel cables in bridge construction and in 1841 established at Saxonburg the rst factory to manufacture steel-wire rope in the U.S. 91 Roebling utilized steel cables in the construction of numerous suspension bridges and is generally considered one of the pioneers in the eld of suspension-bridge construction. He built railroad suspension bridges over the Ohio and Niagara rivers and completed plans for the Brooklyn Bridge shortly before his death. Roebling was the author of Long and Short Span Railway Bridges (1869).

Robert Maillart was born on February 6, 1872, in Bern, Switzerland, where his father, a Belgian citizen, was a banker. He studied civil engineering at the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich and graduated in 1894. Ironically, one of his lowest grades was in bridge design, even though he is regarded today as one of the half dozen greatest bridge designers of the twentieth century. 93 For eight years following his graduation, he worked with di erent civil engineering organizations. In 1902, he founded his own rm for design and construction thereafter, his business grew rapidly and expanded as far as Russia and Spain. In the summer of 1914, he took his wife and three children to Russia. Since the World War prevented their return to Switzerland, Maillart stayed and worked in Russia until 1919, when his business was liquidated by the Revolution. Forced to ee, he returned to Switzerland penniless and lonely, his wife having died in Russia. 94 Because of these misfortunes Maillart felt unable to take up the construction business again and henceforth concentrated on design alone. He opened an o ce in Geneva in 1919 and branches in Bern and Zurich in 1924. 95 During the twenties he began to develop and modify his ideas of bridge design and from 1930, when the Salginatobel and Landquart Bridges were completed, until his death in 1940, he produced over thirty bridge designs of extraordinary originality. Unfortunately, no Swiss municipality would accept his designs for prominent urban locations. 96 In 1936, he was elected an honorary member of the Royal institute of British Architects (R.I.B.A.) although he had never o cially acted as architect on any project. The 1941 rst edition of Space, Time and Architecture by art historian Siegfried Giedion introduced Maillart to a wide public in the U.S.A. Finally, Max Bill's 1949 book, Robert Maillart, with its photographs and commentary on nearly all Maillart's bridges powerfully presented him as an artist of rst rank.

For airplane hangars he used reinforced concrete to cover enormous spans with a light but strong latticework. 99 Nervi considered himself primarily an engineer and technician, not an architect, and he strove primarily for strength through form. He maintained that the strong aesthetic appeal of his buildings was simply a by-product of their structural correctness. His introduction of a versatile new type of reinforced concrete layers of ne steel mesh sprayed with cement mortar made possible one of his masterpieces, the Turin Exposition Hall (1949), in which the approximately 76-m (250-ft) corrugated lattice roof (only about 5 cm thick) creates an immense interior space as dramatic as a cathedral. 100 The best known and most in uential is probably his Palazetto dello Sport (Small Sport Palace, 1960, Rome), Fig. 7.17. Encircled by Y-shaped supports and topped by a shallow scalloped concrete dome,

joined the prestigious architectural rm of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill in Chicago in 1955, eventually becoming a partner (1966). Among his many designs for skyscrapers are Chicago's John Hancock Center (1970) and the Sears Tower (1973), which are among the world's tallest buildings, and One Shell Plaza in Houston, Texas. The Sears Tower was his rst skyscraper to employ his "bundled tube" structural system, which consists of a group of narrow steel cylinders that are clustered together to form a thicker column. The system was innovative because it minimized the amount of steel needed for high towers, eliminated the need for internal wind bracing (since the perimeter columns carried the wind loadings), and permitted freer organization of the interior space. His later projects included the strikingly di erent Haj Terminal of the King Abdul Aziz International Airport, Jiddah, Saudi Arabia (1976-81), and King Abdul Aziz University, also in Jiddah (1977-78).

NEW ARCHITECTURE
Professor - University of Illinois Unauthorized reprint from (Billington 1973)

Felix Candela
The title of my lecture is New Architecture but I cannot avoid the feeling that I have not too much to do with this subject. I don't think I can speak of my work as of any new architecture or even as architecture at all, and perhaps the same could be said of Maillart's work. But, of course, it all depends on what you consider architecture and there is not anymore a general consent about the meaning of this word, But, anyway, upon discussing this with David Billington, he told me it could be interesting to know what had been the in uence of Maillart on my development, and all of a sudden I realized that he may have been one of the strongest in uences at the critical moment in my career in which I was trying to become a builder of shells. But let me speak rst about my background, because it may be important to know what impels people to do things and the circumstances and di culties that they had to deal with in order to achieve their purposes. I was trained as an architect with, you may say, quite a backward kind of curriculum, in Madrid during the thirties. We had only one course in strength of materials, but it was a very good course, dealing mainly with theory of elasticity and following the classical and rigoristic French tradition. As you can imagine, most students considered the matter completely useless for their professional practice and, as it required some knowledge of mathematics, it was very di cult for most of them to pass the examination. This gave me opportunity to do some private tutoring to my classmates, which was a very instructive manner to make some money to pay for my studies. As a result, I became more familiar with the theoretical bases of the current methods of calculation of indeterminate structures. I discovered later that this modest background made me more knowledgeable on the matter than most practicing engineers whose training and interest tend to be directed towards mastering the accepted methods of analysis rather than questioning the basic hypotheses. Anyway, since I never had a high opinion of myself as an artist, I was more interested in the technical part of the curriculum and began to read extensively about structures. Among my lectures I found several French and German papers dealing with shells which were beginning to be in vogue at that time in Europe. Examples of such structures built in Germany and France could be found in magazines and Torroja was building the famous roof of the "Fronton Recoletos" in Madrid, with an unusual shape and a record span. Shells appeared to be an intriguing challenge for me, and I dreamed about the possibility of building some in the future. But my lack of experience and my youthful faith in the impressive wisdom displayed in learned magazines led me to believe that the key to shell design was in complete mathematical calculation, and I tried, rather unsucessfully, to understand and follow them and to make some sense of their results. I was not the only one misled and discouraged by the mathematical barrier so cunningly deployed by German engineers, a clever move which secured them practically an exclusive on the construction of barrel vaults for more than twenty years, hindering the normal employment of such structures during the same time. However, such was my enthusiasm with this mathematical approach that I managed to get a fellowship to go to Germany, hoping to learn something more from the German professors. But the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War saved me from such an ordeal. I could not leave the country and ended in Mexico after three years of military service, with no more baggage than my bare hands and no further addition to my academic background. After several years of general practice in Mexico, as draftsman, designer and contractor, I recalled my old fancy with shells and began to collect again papers on the subject. Whatever I learned from then on was to be the hard way, working alone, with no direct help from any university or engineering o ce. But I am indebted to many people who did help me through their

writings and Maillart was one of the foremost. I discovered him in Giedion's Space, Time and Architecture and then I got Max Bill's book with its invaluable collection of Maillart's essays. I devoured his articles about "Reinforced Concrete Design and Calculation" (he was very careful to di erentiate the meaning of such words and to avoid the more than semantic confusion prevalent nowadays in English-speaking countries)., "The Engineer and the Authorities" which expresses his position in front of the establishment and "Mass and Quality in Reinforced Concrete Structures." Very short papers, indeed, but well provided with opinions, something I could rarely nd in other engineering articles. I learned later that to express personal opinions is considered bad taste among technical writers. Any discussion should be restricted to insigni cant details, but never touch fundamental dogmas, in a fashion curiously similar to what could be expected of the councils of the Church or the meetings of any Politbureau. But my attitude with respect to calculations of reinforced concrete structures was becoming unorthodox, being tired perhaps of performing long and tedious routines whose results were not always meaningful. Therefore, I found Maillart's thoughts delightfully sympathetic and encouraging. If a rebel was able to produce such beautiful and sound structures there could not be anything wrong with becoming also a rebel, which was besides, my only way to break the mystery surrounding shell analysis. Thus, I started to follow the bibliographic tread and met, through their writings, with Freudenthal, Johansen, Van der Broek, Kist, Saliger, Kacinczy and so many others who showed me there was more than a single and infallible manner to approach structural analysis. The discovery of rupture methods, with their emphasis on simple statics and their bearing on the actual properties of construction materials and their behavior in the plastic range, allowed me to trust in simpli ed procedures to understand and analyze the distribution of stresses in shell structures. It also helped me to get out of my naive belief in the indisputable truth of the printed word and to start reading with a new critical outlook. No longer did I need to believe whatever was in print, no matter how high-sounding the name of the author. I could make my own judgements about what methods of stress analysis were better suited for my practice. Since I was working practically alone, I could not a ord nor had time for complex calculations and did welcome Maillart's advice that simpler calculations are more reliable than complex ones, especially for somebody who builds his own structures. This was exactly my case and, since most structures I was building were of modest scale, I could control what was happening, check the results and con rm the accuracy of my judgement or correct my mistakes. In a way, I was working with full scale models. I understand that this was also true of Maillart who in many cases was the actual builder of his designs. Following the general trend to mess up issues, there has been a lot of speculation about the engineer as an artist and in some instances, like in the case of Nervi, about the engineer as an architect (as if the title of architect could confer, per se, artistic ability to its holder) but few people realize that the only way to be an artist in this di cult specialty of building is to be your own contractor. in countries like this, where the building industry has been thoroughly and irreversibly fragmented and the responsibility diluted among so many trades, it may be shocking to think of a contractor as an artist but it is indeed the only way to have in your hands the whole set of tools or instruments to perform the forgotten art of building, to produce "works of art" which, by the way, was the common expression to designate a bridge in the old French engineering vocabulary. Implicit in the above statement is the fact that you have to be, besides your own structural designer and calculator and perhaps your own architect, also your own contractor, a very di cult proposition in some countries where such mergings of today's disparate professions may even be considered unlawful. This means, of course, that the price for being the master of your trade is to accept the whole responsibility for the good performance of the structure, and not too many people today would readily endorse such an awesome commitment. I am not advocating a return to the past history is an irreversible process. I am simply stating that the Maillart phenomenom could not happen under today's situation of the industry. I like to think, however, that Maillart did not judge himself an artist. As Picasso said of himself "he was not looking for beauty he found it". His main concerns must have been e ciency and economy of means, since to be able to build one of his bridges he had to win a bidding competition and prove that
Victor Saouma
7{23
he could do it cheaper than anybody else. But an e cient and economical structure has not necessarily to be ugly. Beauty has no price tag and there is never one single solution to an engineering problem. Therefore, it is always possible to modify the whole or the parts until the ugliness disappears. This aversion to ugliness is quite the opposite of the task of the professional artist who has to produce beauty as an obligation or of today's star-architect who has to be original at any cost in each new project. Maillart's works did not need to be beautiful. This word did not even exist in the practical world of the serious citizens who had to judge his competitive bids. He achieved a beauty without need or purpose just for the pure joy of it. The kind of joy that you can feel also in the works of Haydn or Vivaldi. They were simply enjoying what they were doing, and so was obviously Maillart. He did also possess that rare quality, source of artistic creation and of all invention, of being able to challenge the conventional wisdom and come up with the obvious solution, one, nevertheless, which nobody could think of before. I can imagine the ts of rage and jealousy of some of his contemporary colleagues at the sight of one of his bridges (Landquart or Schwandbach), in which the curved route is supported in a straight arched slab. The problem with this unusual combination - which, of course, looks perfectly logical after the fact - is that it was very di cult, if not impossible, to analyze with the methods available at that time. But Maillart would not take any unnecessary risk and rst he tried the soundness of his approximated calculations in a small example (the Halbkern Bridge) with a span of only fteen meters. This was his testing model which gave him rm ground from which to extrapolate at the next opportunity. I would like to insist at this moment c-n something that everybody knows but which is easily forgotten that all calculations, no matter how sophisticated and complex, can not be more than rough approximations of the natural phenomenon they try to represent by means of a mathematical model. The complexity, or even elegance, of such a model bears no relation at all with the degree of approximation. There is not such a thing as an exact method of structural analysis and, notwithstanding the popular belief in the letter of the codes, the accuracy of any calculation is still a question of personal judgement. This fortunate circumstance allows engineering to reach sometimes the highest category of art, to the despair of dull and in exible technicians. If I nd something lacking in this commendable conference in memory of one of the greatest engineers of all times it is that the side of Maillart's personality as a rebel, with his tireless and successful struggle against the establishment of his times, has not been su ciently stressed.

Case Study III: MAGAZINI GENERALI

8.1 Geometry
1 This sotrage house, built by Maillart in Chiasso in 1924, provides a good example of the mariage between aesthetic and engineering. 2 The most strking feature of the Magazini Generali is not the structure itself, but rather the shape of its internal supporting frames, Fig. 8.1. 3 The frame can be idealized as a simply supported beam hung from two cantilever column supports. Whereas the beam itself is a simple structural idealization, the overhang is designed in such a way as to minimize the net moment to be transmitted to the supports (foundations), Fig. 8.2.
8.2 Loads
4
The load applied on the frame is from the weights of the roof slab, and the frame itself. Given the space between adjacent frames is 14.7 ft, and that the roof load is 98 , and that the total frame weight is 13.6 kips, the total uniform load becomes, Fig. 8.3:

The internal forces are pimarily the shear and moments. Those can be easily determined for a simply supported uniformly loaded beam. The shear varies linearly from 51 kip to -51 kip with zero at the center, and the moment diagram is parabolic with the maximum moment at the center, Fig. 8.5, equal to: 2 (1:6) (63:6) 2 = 808 Mmax = qL = (8.3) 8 8

The externally induced moment at midspan must be resisted by an equal and opposite internal moment. This can be achieved through a combination of compressive force on the upper bers, and tensile ones on the lower. Thus the net axial force is zero, however there is a net internal couple, Fig. 8.6.

8.5 Internal Stresses

The net compressive stress, for a top chord with a cross sectional area of 75 2 is equal to (88) = 1.17 = =P (8.5) A (75) 2 this is much lower than the allowable compressive stress of concrete which is about 1,350 ksi. It should be noted that if the frame was cast along with the roof (monolithic construction), than this stress would be even lower. 12 Since concrete has practically no tensile strength, the tensile force in the lower chord must be resisted by steel. The lower chord has 4 bars with 0.69 2 and 6 other bars with 0.58 2 , thus we have a total of As = 4(0:69) + 6(0:58) = 6:24 2 (8.6) Thus the steel stresses will be (88) (8.7) =P A = (6:24) 2 = 14.1 which is lower than the allowable steel stress.

DESIGN PHILOSOPHIES and GUIDELINES

9.1 Safety Provisions
1 Structures and structural members must always be designed to carry some reserve load above what is expected under normal use. This is to account for Variability in Resistance: The actual strengths (resistance) of structural elements will di er from those assumed by the designer due to: 1. Variability in the strength of the material (greater variability in concrete strength than in steel strength). 2. Di erences between the actual dimensions and those speci ed (mostly in placement of steel rebars in R/C). 3. E ect of simplifying assumptions made in the derivation of certain formulas. Variability in Loadings: All loadings are variable. There is a greater variation in the live loads than in the dead loads. Some types of loadings are very di cult to quantify (wind, earthquakes). Consequences of Failure: The consequence of a structural component failure must be carefully assessed. The collapse of a beam is likely to cause a localized failure. Alternatively the failure of a column is likely to trigger the failure of the whole structure. Alternatively, the failure of certain components can be preceded by warnings (such as excessive deformation), whereas other are sudden and catastrophic. Finally, if no redistribution of load is possible (as would be the case in a statically determinate structure), a higher safety factor must be adopted. 2 The purpose of safety provisions is to limit the probability of failure and yet permit economical structures. 3 The following items must be considered in determining safety provisions: 1. Seriousness of a failure, either to humans or goods. 2. Reliability of workmanship and inspection. 3. Expectation of overload and to what magnitude.
Draft 9{2
4. Importance of the member in the structure. 5. Chance of warning prior to failure.
4
Two major design philosophies have emerged 1. Working Stress Method 2. Ultimate Strength Method
9.2 Working Stress Method

5
This is the simplest of the two methods, and the one which has been historically used by structural engineers. 6 Structural elements are designed for their service loads, and are dimensioned such that the stresses do not exceed some predesignated allowable strength, Fig. 9.1.
Figure 9.1: Load Life of a Structure In R/C this method was the one adopted by the ACI (American Concrete institute) code up to 1971, Working Stress Design Method (WSD). 8 The AISC (American Institute of Steel Construction) code refers to it as the Allowable Stress Design (ASD) and was used until 1986.
7
Victor Saouma
Draft 9.3 Ultimate Strength Method

9
9{3
In this method: 1. All loads are assumed to have the same average variability. 2. The entire variation of the loads and the strengths is placed on the strength side of the equation.
yld < all = F:S:
(9.1)
where F:S: is the factor of safety. 10 Major limitations of this method 1. An elastic analysis can not easily account for creep and shrinkage of concrete. 2. For concrete structures, stresses are not linearly proportional to strain beyond 0:45fc0 . 3. Safety factors are not rigorously determined from a probabilistic approach, but are the result of experience and judgment.

Probabilistic Preliminaries
In this approach, it is assumed that the load Q and the resistance R are random variables. Typical frequency distributions of such random variables are shown in Fig. 9.2. The safety margin is de ned as Y = R ; Q. Failure would occur if Y < 0 Q and R can be combined and the result expressed logarithmically, Fig. 9.3.
Failure would occur for negative values of X 16 The probability of failure Pf is equal to the ratio of the shaded area to the total area under the curve in Fig. 9.3.

R If X is assumed to follow a Normal Distribution than it has a mean value X = ln Q and a m standard deviation . 18 We de ne the safety index (or reliability index) as =X 1 19 For standard distributions and for = 3:5, it can be shown that the probability of failure is Pf = 9 091 or 1:1 10;4. That is 1 in every 10,000 structural members designed with = 3:5 will fail because of either excessive load or understrength sometime in its lifetime. 20 Target values for are shown in Table 9.2.

21
Because the strengths and the loads vary independently, it is desirable to have one factor to account for variability in resistance, and another one for the variability in loads. 22 These factors are referred to as resistance factor and Load Factor respectively. The resistance factor is de ned as m =R (9.3) Rn exp(;0:55 VR ) where RM RN and VR are the mean resistance, the nominal resistance (to be de ned later), and the coe cient of variation of the resistance.
9.3.2 Discussion
23
ACI refers to this method as the Strength Design Method, (previously referred to as the Ultimate Strength Method). 24 AISC refers to it as Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD). 25 Terms such as failure load should be avoided it is preferable to refer to a structure's Limit State load. 1 26 The general form is (LRFD-A4.1)

BRACED ROLLED STEEL BEAMS

1 This chapter deals with the behavior and design of laterally supported steel beams according to the LRFD provisions. 2 A laterally stable beam is one which is braced laterally in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the web. Thus overall buckling of the compression ange as a column cannot occur prior to its full participation to develop the moment strength of the section. 3 If a beam is not laterally supported, Fig. 10.1, we will have a failure mode governed by lateral torsional

The equations given in this chapter are valid for exural members with the following kinds of cross section and loading: 1. Doubly symmetric (such as W sections) and loaded in plane of symmetry 2. Singly symmetric (channels and angles) loaded in plane of symmetry or through the shear center parallel to the web1 .
10.2 Failure Modes and Classi cation of Steel Beams

7
A beam is classi ed as laterally supported depending on Lb which is the distance between lateral supports (or unbraced length) and Lp .
Lb < Lp (10.2) 300 Lp = p ry (10.3) Fy r y (10.4) ry = I A where ry is the radius of gyration with respect to the (minor) y axis (as opposed to the major x axis).
ksi
The strength of exural members is limited by: Plastic Hinge: at a particular cross section, Fig. 10.2. local buckling: of a cross-sectional element (e.g. the web or the ange), Fig. 10.3. Lateral-Torsional buckling: of the entire member, Fig. 10.4.
8
Accordingly, the LRFD manual classi es steel sections as Compact sections: No local buckling can occur. Strength is based on the plastic moment. Partially compact sections: Where local buckling may occur Slender sections: where lateral torsional buckling may occur. We will cover only the rst two cases. 10 Shear should be checked, however with exception of short beams (and no self-respecting architect will ever conceive such a thing:-), exure generally controls.

10.3 Compact Sections

11
For compact sections, the mode of failure is the formation of a plastic hinge that is the section is fully plasti ed. Hence we shall rst examine the bending behavior of beams under limit load. Then we will relate this plastic moment to the design of compact sections.
10.3.1 Bending Capacity of Beams

The stress distribution on a typical wide- ange shape subjected to increasing bending moment is shown in Fig.10.5. In the service range (that is before we multiplied the load by the appropriate factors in the LRFD method) the section is elastic. This elastic condition prevails as long as the stress at the extreme ber has not reached the yield stress Fy . Once the strain " reaches its yield value "y , increasing strain induces no increase in stress beyond Fy .

13
When the yield stress is reached at the extreme ber, the nominal moment strength Mn, is referred to as the yield moment My and is computed as
Mn = My = SxFy
(10.5)
(assuming that bending is occurring with respect to the x ; x axis). 14 When across the entire section, the strain is equal or larger than the yield strain (" "y = Fy =Es ) then the section is fully plasti ed, and the nominal moment strength Mn is therefore referred to as the plastic moment Mp and is determined from
Mp = Fy

and the plastic modulus can be approximated by
Zx wd=9

REINFORCED CONCRETE BEAMS

11.1 Introduction
1
Recalling that concrete has a tensile strength (ft0 ) about one tenth its compressive strength (fc0 ), concrete by itself is a very poor material for exural members. 2 To provide tensile resistance to concrete beams, a reinforcement must be added. Steel is almost universally used as reinforcement (longitudinal or as bers), but in poorer countries other indigenous materials have been used (such as bamboos). 3 The following lectures will focus exclusively on the exural design and analysis of reinforced concrete rectangular sections. Other concerns, such as shear, torsion, cracking, and de ections are left for subsequent ones. 4 Design of reinforced concrete structures is governed in most cases by the Building Code Requirements for Reinforced Concrete, of the American Concrete Institute (ACI-318). Some of the most relevant provisions of this code are enclosed in this set of notes. 5 We will focus on determining the amount of exural (that is longitudinal) reinforcement required at a given section. For that section, the moment which should be considered for design is the one obtained from the moment envelope at that particular point.
11.1.1 Notation

In R/C design, it is customary to use the following notation

11.1.2 Modes of Failure

7
A reinforced concrete beam is a composite structure where concrete provides the compression and steel the tension. 8 Failure is initiated by, Fig. 11.5:
Steel Yielding
Concrete Crushing
Figure 11.1: Failure Modes for R/C Beams 1. Yielding of the steel when the steel stress reaches the yield stress (fs = fy ). This occurs if we do not have enough reinforcement that is the section is under-reinforced. This will result in excessive rotation and deformation prior to failure. 2. Crushing of the concrete, when the concrete strain reaches its ultimate value ("c = "u = 0:003), ACI 318: 10.2.3. This occurs if there is too much reinforcement that is the section is overreinforced. This is a sudden mode of failure.
9 Ideally in an optimal (i.e. most e cient use of materials) design, a section should be dimensioned such that crushing of concrete should occur simultaneously with steel yielding. This would then be a balanced design. 10 However since concrete crushing is a sudden mode of failure with no prior warning, whereas steel yielding is often accompanied by excessive deformation (thus providing ample warning of an imminent failure), design codes require the section to be moderately under-reinforced.
11.1.3 Analysis vs Design

11
In R/C we always consider one of the following problems:
Victor Saouma
Draft 11.1 Introduction

12
11{3
Analysis: Given a certain design, determine what is the maximum moment which can be applied. Design: Given an external moment to be resisted, determine cross sectional dimensions (b and h) as
well as reinforcement (As ). Note that in many cases the external dimensions of the beam (b and h) are xed by the architect. We often consider the maximum moment along a member, and design accordingly.
11.1.4 Basic Relations and Assumptions

In developing a design/analysis method for reinforced concrete, the following basic relations will be used, Fig. ??:

Equilibrium: of forces and moment at the cross section. 1) Fx = 0 or Tension in the reinforcement = Compression in concrete and 2) M = 0 or external moment (that is the one obtained from the moment envelope) equal and opposite to the internal one (tension in steel and compression of the concrete). 2. Material Stress Strain: We recall that all normal strength concrete have a failure strain u = :003 in compression irrespective of fc0 .
14
Compatibility of Displacements: Perfect bond between steel and concrete (no slip). Note that those
two materials do also have very close coe cients of thermal expansion under normal temperature. Plane section remain plane ) strain is proportional to distance from neutral axis.
Basic assumptions used:
11.1.5 ACI Code

15 The ACI code is based on limit strength, or Mn Mu thus a similar design philosophy is used as the one adopted by the LRFD method of the AISC code, ACI-318: 8.1.1 9.3.1 9.3.2 16 The required strength is based on (ACI-318: 9.2)

11.2 Cracked Section, Ultimate Strength Design Method
10.2.6
17 In determining the limit state moment of a cross section, we consider Fig. 11.3. Whereas the strain distribution is linear (ACI-318 10.2.2), the stress distribution is non-linear because the stress-strain curve of concrete is itself non-linear beyond 0:5fc0 . 18 Thus we have two alternatives to investigate the moment carrying capacity of the section, ACI-318:
1. Use the non-linear stress distribution. 2. Use a simpler equivalent stress distribution.
19
The ACI code follows the second approach. Thus we seek an equivalent stress distribution such that: 1. The resultant force is equal 2. The location of the resultant is the same. We note that this is similar to the approach followed in determining reactions in a beam subjected to a distributed load when the load is replaced by a single force placed at the centroid.

11.2.2 Balanced Steel Ratio

21
Next we seek to determine the balanced steel ratio b such that failure occurs by simultaneous yielding of the steel fs = fy and crushing of the concrete "c = 0:003, ACI-318: 10.3.2 We will separately consider the two failure possibilities: Tension Failure: we stipulate that the steel stress is equal to fy :

This b corresponds to the only combination of b, d and As which will result in simultaneous yielding of the steel and crushing of the concrete, that is an optimal design.

12.1 Introduction
1
Beams with longer spans are architecturally more appealing than those with short ones. However, for a reinforced concrete beam to span long distances, it would have to have to be relatively deep (and at some point the self weight may become too large relative to the live load), or higher grade steel and concrete must be used. 2 However, if we were to use a steel with fy much higher than 60 ksi in reinforced concrete (R/C), then to take full advantage of this higher yield stress while maintaining full bond between concrete and steel, will result in unacceptably wide crack widths. Large crack widths will in turn result in corrosion of the rebars and poor protection against re. 3 One way to control the concrete cracking and reduce the tensile stresses in a beam is to prestress the beam by applying an initial state of stress which is opposite to the one which will be induced by the load. 4 For a simply supported beam, we would then seek to apply an initial tensile stress at the top and compressive stress at the bottom. In prestressed concrete (P/C) this can be achieved through prestressing of a tendon placed below the elastic neutral axis. 5 Main advantages of P/C: Economy, de ection & crack control, durability, fatigue strength, longer spans. 6 There two type of Prestressed Concrete beams: Pretensioning: Steel is rst stressed, concrete is then poured around the stressed bars. When enough concrete strength has been reached the steel restraints are released, Fig. 12.1. Postensioning: Concrete is rst poured, then when enough strength has been reached a steel cable is passed thru a hollow core inside and stressed, Fig. 12.2.
12.1.1 Materials

P/C beams usually have higher compressive strength than R/C. Prestressed beams can have fc0 as high as 8,000 psi. 8 The importance of high yield stress for the steel is illustrated by the following simple example. If we consider the following:

Note that yield stress is not well de ned for steel used in prestressed concrete, usually we take 1% strain as e ective yield. 10 Steel relaxation is the reduction in stress at constant strain (as opposed to creep which is reduction of strain at constant stress) occrs. Relaxation occurs inde nitely and produces signi cant prestress loss. If we denote by fp the nal stress after t hours, fpi the initial stress, and fpy the yield stress, then

12.1.2 Prestressing Forces
11
Prestress force \varies" with time, so we must recognize 3 stages: 1. Pj Jacking force. But then due to (a) friction and anchorage slip in post-tension (b) elastic shortening in pretension is reduced to: 2. Pi Initial prestress force But then due to time dependent losses caused by (a) relaxation of steel (b) shrinkage of concrete (c) creep of concrete is reduced to: 3. Pe E ective force
12.1.3 Assumptions
12
The following assumptions are made 1. Materials are both in the elastic range 2. section is uncracked 3. sign convention: +ve tension, ;ve compression 4. Subscript 1 refers to the top and 2 to the bottom 5. I S1 = cI1 S2 = cI2 6. e + ve if downward from concrete neutral axis
12.1.4 Tendon Con guration

13
Through proper arrangement of the tendon (eccentricity at both support and midspan) various internal exural stress distribution can be obtained, Fig. 12.4.
12.1.5 Equivalent Load

An equivalent load for prestressing can be usually determined from the tendon con guration and the prestressing force, Fig. 12.5.

Partial prestressing (pioneered by Leonhardt, Abeles, Thurliman), cracks are allowed to occur (just as in R/C), and they are easier to control in P/C than in R/C.

The ACi code imposes the following limits on the steel stresses in terms of fpu which is the ultimate strength of the cable: Pj < :80fpuAs and Pi < :70fpuAs . No limits are speci ed for Pe .

12.3 Case Study: Walnut Lane Bridge

The historical Walnut Lane Bridge ( rst major prestressed concrete bridge in the USA) is made of three spans, two side ones with lengths of 74 ft and a middle one of length 160 feet. Thirteen prestressed cocnrete beams are placed side by side to make up a total width of 44 fet of roadway and two 9.25 feet of sidewalk. In between the beams, and cast with them, are transverse sti eners which connect the beams laterally, Fig. 12.8

12.3.2 Prestressing
22
Each beam is prestressed by two middle parabolic cables, and two outer horizontal ones along the anges. All four have approximately the same eccentricity at midspan of 2.65 ft. or 31.8 inch. 23 Each prestressing cable is made up 64 wires each with a diameter of 0.27 inches. Thus the total area of prestressing steel is given by: 2 2 Awire = (d=2)2 = 3:14( 0:276 (12.21-a) 2 ) = 0:0598 Acable = 64(0:0598) 2 = 3:83 2 (12.21-b) 2 2 Atotal = 4(3:83) = 15:32 (12.21-c)

Whereas the ultimate tensile strength of the steel used is 247 ksi, the cables have been stressed only to 131 ksi, thus the initial prestressing force Pi is equal to Pi = (131) (15:32) 2 = 2 000 (12.22)

13.1.1 Uniform Horizontal Load

In order to optimize dead-load e ciency, long span structures should have their shapes approximate the coresponding moment diagram, hence an arch, suspended cable, or tendon con guration in a prestressed concrete beam all are nearly parabolic, Fig. 13.1. 2 Long span structures can be built using at construction such as girders or trusses. However, for spans in excess of 100 ft, it is often more economical to build a curved structure such as an arch, suspended cable or thin shells. 3 Since the dawn of history, mankind has tried to span distances using arch construction. Essentially this was because an arch required materials to resist compression only (such as stone, masonary, bricks), and labour was not an issue. 4 The basic issues of static in arch design are illustrated in Fig. 13.2 where the vertical load is per unit horizontal projection (such as an external load but not a self-weight). Due to symmetry, the vertical reaction is simply V = wL 2 , and there is no shear across the midspan of the arch (nor a moment). Taking moment about the crown, L;L =0 (13.1) M = Hh ; wL 2 2 4
Solving for H
H = wL 8h
(13.2)
We recall that a similar equation was derived for arches., and H is analogous to the C ; T forces in a beam, and h is the overall height of the arch, Since h is much larger than d, H will be much smaller than C ; T in a beam. 5 Since equilibrium requires H to remain constant across thee arch, a parabolic curve would theoretically result in no moment on the arch section. 6 Three-hinged arches are statically determinate structures which shape can acomodate support settlements and thermal expansion without secondary internal stresses. They are also easy to analyse through statics.

An arch carries the vertical load across the span through a combination of axial forces and exural ones. A well dimensioned arch will have a small to negligible moment, and relatively high normal compressive stresses. 8 An arch is far more e cient than a beam, and possibly more economical and aesthetic than a truss in carrying loads over long spans. 9 If the arch has only two hinges, Fig. 13.3, or if it has no hinges, then bending moments may exist either at the crown or at the supports or at both places.

Since H varies inversely to the rise h, it is obvious that one should use as high a rise as possible. For a combination of aesthetic and practical considerations, a span/rise ratio ranging from 5 to 8 or perhaps as much as 12, is frequently used. However, as the ratio goes higher, we may have buckling problems, and the section would then have a higher section depth, and the arch advantage diminishes. 11 In a parabolic arch subjected to a uniform horizontal load there is no moment. However, in practice an arch is not subjected to uniform horizontal load. First, the depth (and thus the weight) of an arch is not usually constant, then due to the inclination of the arch the actual self weight is not constant. Finally, live loads may act on portion of the arch, thus the line of action will not necessarily follow the arch centroid. This last e ect can be neglected if the live load is small in comparison with the dead load. p 2 2 V + H ), whereas at the crown 12 Since the greatest total force in the arch is at the support, (R = we simply have H , the crown will require a smaller section than the support.

It is necessary to determine preliminary dimensions for the size of the arch section. The arches are spaced 60 ft on centers and carry four-story loading totaling 27 k/ft along each arch.
Solution:
1. To the initial DL and LL of 27 k/ft we add the arch own weight estimated to be load, thus the total load is w = (1 + :25)27 = 33:7 33 2. We next determine the various forces: 2 (33)(510)2 H = wL 8h = 8(100) = 10 700 (33)(510) = 8 400 V = wL 2 = 2

This placement of the load actually corresponds to one of the most critical loading arrangement. The total vertical load is shown in Fig. 13.11

Flexible that is a hinge which can transfer forces only. In this case we really have cantiliver action only. In a exible connection the column and beam end moments are both equal to zero, Mcol = Mbeam = 0. The end rotation are not equal, col = 6 beam. Rigid: The connection is such that beam = col and moment can be transmitted through the connection. In a rigid connection, the end moments and rotations are equal (unless there is an externally applied moment at the node), Mcol = Mbeam = 6 0, col = beam. Semi-Rigid: The end moments are equal and not equal to zero, but the rotation are di erent. beam = 6 6 0. Furthermore, the di erence in rotation is resisted by the spring Mspring = col , Mcol = Mbeam = Kspring ( col ; beam).

For vertical load across the beam rigid connection will reduce the maximum moment in the beam (at the expense of a negative moment at the ends which will in turn be transferred to the columns).

The advantages of a rigid connection are greater when the frame is subjected to a lateral load. Under those conditions, the connection will sti en the structure and reduce the amount of lateral de ection, Fig. 14.2.

1. Prestressed concrete beams: If the prestressing cable is within the kernel (i.e middle third), then there will not be any tensile stresses caused by prestressing alone. 2. Foundations: If the eccentricity is within the middle kernel, then we have compressive stresses only under the foundation and no undesirable uplift. 3. Buildings: If the eccentricity of the vertical load is within the middle third, all columns will be loaded under compression only.
14.2 Buildings Structures

There are three primary types of building systems: Wall Subsytem: in which very rigid walls made up of solid masonry, paneled or braced timber, or steel trusses constitute a rigid subsystem. This is only adequate for small rise buildings. Vertical Shafts: made up of four solid or trussed walls forming a tubular space structure. The tubular structure may be interior (housing elevators, staircases) and/or exterior. Most e cient for very high rise buildings. Rigid Frame: which consists of linear vertical components (columns) rigidly connected to sti horizontal ones (beams and girders). This is not a very e cient structural form to resist lateral (wind/earthquake) loads.
11
14.2.1 Wall Subsystems

12
Whereas exterior wall provide enclosure and interior ones separation, both of them can also have a structural role in trnsfering vertical and horizontal loads. 13 Walls are constructed out of masonry, timber concrete or steel. 14 If the wall is braced by oors, then it can provide an excellent resitance to horizontal load in the plane of the wall (but not orthogonal to it). 15 When shear-walls subsytems are used, it is best if the center of orthogonal shear resistance is close to the centroid of lateral loads as applied. If this is not the case, then there will be torsional design problems.
14.2.1.1 Example: Concrete Shear Wall

From (Lin and Stotesbury 1981)
We consider a reinforced concrete wall 20 ft wide, 1 ft thick, and 120 ft high with a vertical load of 400 k acting on it at the base. As a result of wind, we assume a uniform horizontal force of 0.8 kip/ft of vertical height acting on the wall. It is required to compute the exural stresses and the shearing stresses in the wall to resist the wind load, Fig. 14.5. 1. Maximum shear force and bending moment at the base

14.2.2 Shaft Systems

18 Vertical shear-resisting shafts in buildings act as a tubular section and generally have a rectangular cross section. If there is only one shaft, it is generally located in the center and houses the elevators. If there are many shafts, then they should be symmetrically arranged. 19 If the shaft is relatively short and wide, with an aspect ratio under 1 or 2, then the dominant strcutral action is that of a sti shear resisting tube. If the aspect ratio is between 3 and 5, then the shear forces may not be the controlling criterion, and exure dominates.

thus we do not have any tensile stresses, and those stresses are much better than those obtained from a single shear wall.
14.2.3 Rigid Frames

Rigid frames can carry both vertical and horizontal loads, however their analysis is more complex than for tubes. 22 The rigorous and exact analysis of a rigid frame can only be accomplished through a computer analysis. However, for preliminary design it is often su cient to perform approximate analyses. 23 There are two approximate methods for the analysis of rigid frames subjected to lateral loads: 1) Portal and 2) Cantilever method. 24 The portal frame method is based on the following major assumptions, Fig. 14.8:

The point of in ection (zero moment) for all columns is at midheight 3. The point of in ection for all girders is at midspan. 4. For a multibay frame, the shears on the interior columns are equal and the shear in each exterior column is half the shear of an interior column. This method will be discussed in more details in the following section.

Despite the widespread availability of computers, approximate methods of analysis are justi ed by 1. Inherent assumption made regarding the validity of a linear elastic analysis vis a vis of an ultimate failure design.

Vertical loads are treated separately from the horizontal ones. We use the design sign convention for moments (+ve tension below), and for shear (ccw +ve). Assume girders to be numbered from left to right. In all free body diagrams assume positivee forces/moments, and take algeebraic sums.
14.3.1 Vertical Loads

The girders at each oor are assumed to be continuous beams, and columns are assumed to resist the resulting unbalanced moments from the girders. 31 Basic assumptions 1. Girders at each oor act as continous beams supporting a uniform load. 2. In ection points are assumed to be at (a) One tenth the span from both ends of each girder. (b) Mid-height of the columns 3. Axial forces and deformation in the girder are negligibly small. 4. Unbalanced end moments from the girders at each joint is distributed to the columns above and below the oor.
30 32
Based on the rst assumption, all beams are statically determinate and have a span, Ls equal to 0.8 the original length of the girder, L. (Note that for a rigidly connected member, the in ection point is at 0.211 L, and at the support for a simply supported beam hence, depending on the nature of the connection one could consider those values as upper and lower bounds for the approximate location of the hinge). 33 End forces are given by Maximum positive moment at the center of each beam is, Fig. 14.9 1 2 2 2 2 M+ = 1 8 wLs = w 8 (0:8) L = 0:08wL (14.29)
Maximum negative moment at each end of the girder is given by, Fig. 14.9

Girder axial forces are assumed to be negligible eventhough the unbalanced column shears above and
below a oor will be resisted by girders at the oor.
14.3.2 Horizontal Loads

We must di erentiate between low and high rise buildings. Low rise buidlings, where the height is at least samller than the hrizontal dimension, the de ected shape is characterized by shear deformations. High rise buildings, where the height is several times greater than its least horizontal dimension, the de ected shape is dominated by overall exural deformation.

35
BUILDING STRUCTURES
Low rise buildings under lateral loads, have predominantly shear deformations. Thus, the approximate analysis of this type of structure is based on 1. Distribution of horizontal shear forces. 2. Location of in ection points.
36
The portal method is based on the following assumptions 1. In ection points are located at (a) Mid-height of all columns above the second oor. (b) Mid-height of oor columns if rigid support, or at the base if hinged. (c) At the center of each girder. 2. Total horizontal shear at the mid-height of all columns at any oor level will be distributed among these columns so that each of the two exterior columns carry half as much horizontal shear as each interior columns of the frame.
Forces are obtained from Column Shear is obtained by passing a horizontal section through the mid-height of the columns at each oor and summing the lateral forces above it, then Fig. 14.12

14.4 Lateral De ections

Even at schematic or preliminary stages of design, it is important to estimate the lateral de ections of tall buildings for the following reasons 1. Lateral de ections are often limited by code requirements, for example < h=500 where h is the height of the story or of the building. This is important because occupants should not experience uncomfortable horizontal movements. 2. A building that de ects severly under lateral forces may have damage problems associated with vibration (as with vertical defelctions of beams). 3. Through the evaluation of de ection, one may also get some idea of the relative horizontal load carried by the various vertical subsystems in a building (i.e. how much is carried by the shaft compared to the frames). Since all systems are connected, they must move together and through their sti ness (deformation per unit load) we can determine the contribution of each subsystem.

When two slender walls are connected by (heavy) lintels, the entire subsystem can be made to act as one cantilever supported by the foundations and de ections will be small. However if we have light lintels, their deformation is larger than those of the walls, Fig. 14.25.

De ection of a rigid frame is essentially caused by shear between stories which produces vertical shears in the girders. From the portal method we can estimate those deformations, Fig. 14.26. 44 The deformation for the rst story at the exterior joint can be approximated from

Figure 14.30: Transverse De ection, (Lin and Stotesbury 1981) elements are the center concrete shaft (20ft 40ft in section and made up of four 12-in walls) and the reinforced-prestressed concrete frames (made up of 12in 30in T beams, Igdr = 3:64 4 , and 20 inch square reinforced concrete columns). 52 We consider a wind load of 4.8 k/ft in the transverse direction and make the following assumptions: 1. Colums are of uniform sectional properties and height for all stories. 2. Shaft walls are of uniform thickness for all stories. We neglect wall openings. 3. The wind load is uniform over the height of the building.

The solution proceeds as follows:

1. Determine the exural deformation of the top of the shaft (we may neglect shear deformations since the shaft is slender): (14.50-a) (14.50-b) (14.50-c) (14.50-d)
ft
(14.50-e) (14.50-f)
The h ratio is much less than 1/500 as permitted in most building codes, and s within the usual index for concrete buildings, which ranges between 1/1,000 and 1/2,500. If the wall thickness is reduced, and if door openings are considered, the de ection will be correspondingly smaller. The de ection due to moment increases rapidly at the top, the value of 1/1,800 indicates only the average drift index for the entire building, whereas the story drift index may be higher, especially for the top oor. 2. We next consider the de ection of the top of the frame. Assuming that each frame takes 1/9 of the total wind load and shear, and neglecting column shortening, then:
2 h 2L Eh = Vcol 12E IcolE + Ig dr 3 (20=12)(20=12)3 Icol = bh = 0:64 4 12 = 12 Igdr = 3:64 4 (156) = 41:7 =col ground = (4:8) Vcol I (2)(9) (12) + 2(60) (41:7) (12)2 = 12(432 000) (0:64) 4 (3:46) = 0:00116(18:8 + 34:7) = 0:062

(14.51-e) (14.51-f)
3. Since the story drift varies with the shear in the story, which decreases linearly to the top, the average drift will be 0:062=2 = 0:31 per story and the de ection at top of the building is approximately (14.52) = (13)(0:031) = 0:40 which indicates a drift ratio of (0:4) = 1 (14.53-a) Drift Ratio for Building = (156) 400 :062) = 1 Drift Ratio for Ground Floor = (0(12) (14.53-b) 194

4. Comparing the frame de ection of 0:40 with the shaft de ection of 0:087 , it is seen that the frame is about ve times more exible than the shaft. Furthermore, the frame would not be sti enough to carry all the lateral load by itlself. Proportioning the lateral load to the relative sti nesses, the frame would carry about 1/6 of the load, and the remaining 5/6 will be carried by the shaft. Increasing the column size will sti en the frame, but in order to be really e ective, the girder sti ness will also need to be increased, since thegirders contribute about 2/3 of the de ection. Then the frames can be made o carry a larger proportion of the load. Note that the de ected shapes of the shaft and the frames are quite di erent, so that the above simple comparison of top de ections is not an accurate assessment. Finally, we have not studied the e ect of the shaft sti ened by the exterior columns, which are rigidly connected to the shaft walls and will avt with the shaft as a unit, Fig. 14.31. This would

Through strategically located havy trusses at the top and possibly at the middle of a building we can brace the exterior columns against the core shaft. This will result in a frame-like action in the shaft,
