Abstract
ENG: Abstract. This article is devoted to the analysis of one of the most common structural designs of the steel frame of small spans, currently used in India in construction and reconstruction for seismic areas. This scheme constructively involves the implementation of the main bearing elements - bolts and columns - in the form of a spatial truss box section. At the same time, rather simple rolling profiles from small-sized corners are used, as well as a round steel bar. The studies performed by the authors were carried out using the finite element method based on the national design computing complex SCAD for Windows. The loads, as well as the geometrical characteristics of the profiles, were taken according to the current building standards of India. Based on the results of the analysis, a number of recommendations were formulated to improve the efficiency of the considered design scheme for seismic effects of varying intensity.
