The Golden Rules of Steel Portal Frame Design for Structural Engineers

If you are designing any type of industrial building, you are very likely to come across a portal frame.
In this video, we're going to dive deep into the design of steel portal frame structures.
We will look into preliminary design, methods of analysis, haunches, struts, fly braces, bending moment, section moment capacity, splicing, transportation, footings and much more.

Thank you for detailed video.

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

No worries ☺

[@sothattheng8624]

Thanks for your sharing!

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

Thanks for watching :)

[@FliesEyes]

Great explanation, mate.

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

Thanks Murray :)

[@omaral-azzawi]

Gabriel, your knowledge and expertise are truly invaluable, and I want you to know how much I appreciate you sharing them, and I am very grateful. Thank you so much for all your efforts.

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

Thanks my friend. It makes me really happy to hear those things. I appreciate your words.

[@jmlali404]

Thanks for your videos 😊

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

No worries man. Thanks for your comment :)

[@Kacophoniks]

Succinct and informative as always. I bought your retaining wall guide, and I'll likely buy any other structural publication you put together.

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

Thanks very much. I appreciate your support. That's what keeps me going.

YOU are the best man

[@Sitche]

Thank you. May you also do a video on portal trusses with parallel chords

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

I will put on the list :)

[@telestruct]

Hello, thanks for the valuable information presented in this video.
5:20 Is the haunch length (4m) the total left and right haunches or is each one 4m?

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

each one

Salve Gabriel, vc eh foda! Estou fazendo meu primeiro portal frame aqui na Australia!! Complicado.... haha

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

Fala brother. Bom demais. Ta trampando onde?

[@rdg5329]

@@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus Trabalhando em NSW aqui perto de Byron ja faz 1 ano e meio, aprendendo muito ainda todos os dias. quantos anos vc tem de experiencia?

[@andikamentaruk1504]

can we just model the building as 2d frame, or is there any difference if we model it as 3d?

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

yes you can analyze the portal frame with a 2D model. I find the 3D models good for bracing analysis, relative sway of portals etc. It considers all the stiffness. But yeah, 2D works as well.

[@a.a.badmus1457]

Whats software is this sir?

Spacegass

[@TrustyGroup-qz8od]

Can I have a favor from You, Can you please share the whole videos series which can help a steel structure engineer beginner as I am. I want to pursue a steel structure designing career specifically using Robot structural analysis professional. Please how can I get your assistance

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

what type of series?

[@user-lg7gx5ub4x]

I agree, I think some robot tutorials on how you input and explain the reactions against general topics such as this video would be really helpful. Typically you only see either videos on how to use the software or videos on general topics. Might be someone unique to try and combine them . Food for thought, but I would watch.

[@kaviteshdeo2735]

​@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus hy Your videos are really helpful for graduate engineers..it would be really helpful if you could design a portal frame from start to end..wind design to foundation design

[@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus]

@@kaviteshdeo2735 that would be a long video. Best done outside TH-cam. Something like a course.

[@rdg5329]

Are you guys from? In Australia at least in my company we use Space Gass, in Brazil I used Robot.

@@tome6023 haha I think I've never met a nuclear engineer. That would be cool though
