Introduction
Consider a 3D structure shown in figure. It is intended to transform this 3D
system into 2D system for facilitating analysis. This can be done by using
the transformation technique of Equivalent Frame Analysis (ACI 13.7).

Introduction
First, a frame is detached from the 3D structure. In the given figure, an
interior frame is detached.
The width of the frame is same as mentioned in DDM. The length of the
frame extends up to full length of 3D system and the frame extends the full
height of the building.

Introduction
Ksb represents the combined stiffness of slab and longitudinal beam (if any).
Kec represents the modified column stiffness. The modification depends on lateral
members (slab, beams etc) and presence of column in the storey above.

Therefore, the effect of 3D behavior of a frame is transformed into a 2D frame in terms of
these stiffness i.e., Ksb and Kec.
Once a 2D frame is obtained, the analysis can be done by any method of 2D frame analysis.

Stiffness of Slab Beam member (Ksb):
( )
The stiffness of slab beam (Ksb = kEIsb/l) consists of combined stiffness of
slab and any longitudinal beam present within.
For a span, the k factor is a direct function of ratios c1/l1 and c2/l2
Tables are available in literature (Nilson and MacGregor) for determination
of k for various conditions of slab systems.

Equivalent column stiffness calculation (1/Kec = 1/∑Kc +1/Kt)
1/Kec = 1/∑Kc +1/Kt = 1/272Ecc + 1/231Ecs
Because the slab and the columns have the same strength
concrete, Ecc = Ecs = Ec.
Therefore, Kec = 124.91Ec
As all columns have similar dimensions and geometric

Keclec = 315×10×12=37800E
Keclec = 318×10×12=38160E

Moment Distribution Method:
The original derivation of EFM assumed that moment distribution would be
the procedure used to analyze the slabs, and some of the concepts in the
method are awkward to adapt to other methods of analysis.
In lieu of computer software, moment distribution is a convenient hand
calculation method for analyzing partial frames in the Equivalent Frame
Method.
Once stiffnesses are obtained from EFM, the distribution factors are
conveniently calculated.
