Determine sensitivity to sway, cr: There are several different ways to calculate the cr. One is to use the method See NCCI given in EN 1993-1-1 5.2.1 (4)B described first below. Another is to perform SN001 a buckling analysis in a finite element package. This will also be described and used below. The influence from sway can be neglected if the following criterion is fulfilled. EN 1993-1-1 F cr = cr 10 5.2.1 (3) FEd Check the sensitivity to sway for each storey: EN 1993-1-1 5.2.1 Eq.

Total vertical load on the two storeys: VEd1 = q1 L = 82,1 14 = 1149,4 kN VEd2 = q2 L = 107, 3 14 = 1502,2 kN cr for the upper storey:

cr =

The sway effects cannot be neglected for this frame.

The second alternative is to use a finite element package for determining cr. In this case only the vertical loads are considered as concentrated to the joints of the frame according to the figure below.

From a buckling analysis the cr can be directly determined.
cr = 7,51 < 10

As can be seen the different methods gives different results. The finite element analysis should give the most correct results since the equation from EN 1993-1-1 is a simplification. In this case it gives a conservative result because the columns are uniform and the upper part has less load than the lower part. However, for large cr values the difference in the contribution from the sway on the frame is rather small. In this example the cr from the finite element analysis will be used. Determine if local bow imperfections have to be considered Local bow imperfections should be considered if the following two conditions EN 1993-1-1 are met: 5.3.2(6) at least one moment resistant joint at one member end and

EN 1993-1-1 is the in-plane non-dimensional slenderness calculated for the member considered as hinged at its ends 6.3.1.2(1)
The conditions can be reformulated as follows:

A fy N cr > 0, 5 A fy N Ed
N Ed > 0, 25 N cr For the columns the buckling loads assuming hinged ends are: Outer columns, HEA 200 N cr = 2 E I 2 210000 3692 104 = = 6247 kN l2 35002 2 E I 2 210000 5410 104 = = 9153 kN l2 35002

The member that carries the highest normal force is the lower part of the outer column and the middle column. The normal force in the outer column, lower part, according to first order analysis NEd = 568 kN N Ed = 568 kN < 1562 kN = 0, 25 N cr The normal force in the inner column, lower part, according to first order analysis NEd =1533 kN N Ed = 1533 kN < 2288 kN = 0, 25 N cr Since this two members do not meet the condition then no other member will and hence, the bow imperfections does not have to be considered.
Select method of allowing for sway effects The second order sway effects may be calculated according to first order theory if the horizontal loads, i.e. wind, and equivalent horizontal loads are increased by the factor:
1 1 1 cr
EN 1993-1-1 5.2.2(5)B & (6)B
