Approximate Methods in Structural Analysis by irshad is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document discusses approximate analysis methods for multi-story frames. It introduces the portal method and cantilever method for analyzing lateral loads on frames. The portal method assumes points of contraflexure in members lie at midpoints and interior columns take double the shear of exterior columns. Horizontal forces are assumed to act only at joints. An example problem demonstrates applying the portal method to determine member shears and moments in a two-story frame subjected to lateral and gra
