Part of: Building Code Requirements for Masonry Structures (ACI 530-88/ASCE 5-88) and Specifications for Masonry Structures (ACI 530.1-88/ASCE 6-88) (ACI 530.1-88/ASCE 6-88)

Abstract:

The paper presents a solution for the elastic, lateral-torsional buckling of beams under unequal end moments using Worthington's method of superposition of modes involving uniform and non uniform torsion. It is seen to provide more accurate results in comparison with existing methods as used in design codes.
