frame. In a braced frame, some other element besides the columns resist sidesway, such as the shear walls in an elevator shaft. Where: k = effective length factor (assume equal to 1 for this example) lu = unbraced length = 12' r = radius of gyration = 0.3 h (ACI 10.10.1.2) r = 0.3 (18”) = 5.40” M2 is larger of two moments

CE 433, Fall 2006 Deflection of a Reinforced Concrete Beam

Icr is the moment of inertia of the cracked section. The uncracked response and the cracked response under service loads were studied at the beginning of the semester (see Flexure in RC Beams at 3 Stages). Calculating the moment of inertia is a two-step process: first the neutral axis must be located, then the moment of inertia can be calculated.
