Abstract
This chapter deals with the design of structural members based on their behavior beyond the elastic limit, with a particular emphasis on collapse loads. In treating the subject of the plastic design of structures, resistance to bending action is the primary means by which the loads are supported. The application of this method is best suited to the analysis of continuous beams and rigid frames.
