Product Description

The K factor calculations for a two-story rigid steel frame structure according to the specifications in the AISC Steel Construction Manual 360-10. This calculation package determines the effective length factors for column buckling analysis in the major and minor building directions.

The frame consists of:

  • IPE400 lower columns
  • HE200A upper columns
  • HE300A right beam
  • IPE300 left beam

Columns are assumed fixed at the base.

K factor calculations performed:

  • Summation of beam stiffness per AISC C-C2-1
  • Summation of column stiffness per AISC C-C2-1
  • Calculation of GA ratio per AISC C-C2-1
  • Determination of K factors per AISC table C-C2-1

The provided calculations follow the specifications of the AISC Steel Construction Manual for determining K factors. This complete analysis provides K factors needed for column buckling checks and is ready to use for your steel building project
