Proposal of a simplified criterion to estimate second order global effects in reinforced concrete buildings

Abstract

Abstract This work proposes a new simplified parameter for the calculation of second order global effects, based on the Galerkin’s Method by Weighted Residuals. The proposed criterion was analysed based on 21 planar frames associated with shear wall, reaching results that present satisfactory accuracy compared to the second order global analysis, even for cases where the γz coefficient is greater than 1.30.
