摘要
This paper investigates the buckling of multistory frames braced by vertical beams. The sectional properties of the frames and the bracing beam are assumed to vary linearly along the height; the axial forces in the columns and the bracing beam are also assumed to linearly change along the height. A relationship between the buckling load and the bracing rigidity is established. The threshold rigidity for the vertical bracing beam which is just enough to make the frames buckle in a non-sway mode is obtained. The result may be used as a rational basis for classifying sway frames and non-sway frames after taking the influence of initial imperfections and lateral loads into account.
