Slope-Deflection Method:
Frames Without Side-
Side-sway
In frames axial deformations are much smaller than the
bending deformations and are neglected in the analysis.
With this assumption some frames will not side-sway
(the frames will not be displaced to the right or left).
Frames do not side-sway if:
They are restrained against side-sway.
The frame geometry and loading is symmetrical.
The analysis of such rigid frames by slope deflection
equation essentially follows the same steps as that of
continuous beams.
