 I have a steel structure consisting of steel moment frames in both direction. 
 There is no torsion in the building. 
 Now I need to perform redundancy checks for this as per cl 12.3.4.2 (ASCE 7-16). 
 I want to know how I can do it as per</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 12</generator><item><title>RE: Redundancy Checks for Moment Frames</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/734014?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 27 Sep 2022 14:53:13 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:65bd9146-efb4-4cf2-b8ff-594f98f74164</guid><dc:creator>Seth Guthrie</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I suppose you would individually pin the ends of select frame beams and check the redistribution of forces and deflections compared to the original analysis. The clause does say &amp;quot;story strength&amp;quot; (and not stiffness), but that&amp;#39;s pretty abstract. We don&amp;#39;t have any report of story strength per se, but I suppose you could do some sort of summation of member demand/capacity ratios.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
