dc.description.abstractThe desire for more efficient and realistic structural design of plane steel frames has brought plastic methods of analysis to the fore. Though not commonly used in South Africa, plastic methods have been adopted elsewhere, particularly in the United States. An incremental approach is presented, leading to the determination of the collapse load of a structure and its consequent design. The structure is then analysed using deformation theory analysis, and the results are checked using the A.I.S.C. recommendations, a summary of which is presented. A computer program which automatically executes the design and analysis of any plane steel frame is included, and some of the results obtained from the program are presented.en_ZA
