Abstract

The conventional effective length method has been used for decades. Fairly speaking, it provides a quick means of assessing the buckling strength of a structure. However, in pace with the advances in computer technology including cost, speed and memory of personal computers, a better and more reliable method with a clearer concept behind the true behaviour of a structure emerges and this method is broadly named as the "Advanced analysis". This paper describes the background and implementation of this new method in the design of steel structures.
