EXAMPLE 1-001 FRAME - GENERAL LOADING PROBLEM DESCRIPTION A three-element frame is subjected to seven load cases with different types of distributed and/or concentrated loads. The resulting displacements at specified joints are compared with independent hand calculated results. Important Note: Only bending deformations are considered in the analysis. Shear and axial deformations are ignored. In SAP2000 this is achieved by setting the property modification factor for area to 1,000 and setting the property modification factor for shear area to 0.
