MODULE 2 - Activity #18 Approximate Analysis of Rectangular Building Frame

This document provides instructions for an activity to calculate approximate vertical and lateral loads on rectangular building frames. Students are asked to solve example problems determining forces in frame members and reactions at supports of a portal frame under loading, as well as internal moments and axial/shear/bending forces in segments using portal and cantilever methods. References on structural analysis are provided and students are instructed to show calculations, illustrations, and solutions in a neat template for grading according to a rubric focusing on information presentation and calculation accuracy.

Activity #18: Approximate Analysis of
MODULE 2 - MIDTERM
Rectangular Building Frame

1. Determine (approximately) the force in members GF,GK, and JK of the portal frame. Also find
the reactions at the fixed column supports A and B. Assume all members of the truss to be
connected at their ends.

2. Determine (approximately) the internal moments at A and B caused by the vertical loading.
