El análisis de pandeo según el método del ancho eficaz o del método de las tensiones reducidas se basa en la determinación de la carga crítica del sistema, en adelante llamado LBA ("linear buckling analysis" o análisis de pandeo lineal). Este artículo explica el cálculo analítico del factor de carga crítica, así como la utilización del método de elementos finitos (MEF).
In the AISC 360 – 14th Ed. C2.2, the direct analysis method requires initial imperfections to be taken into consideration. The important imperfection of recognition is column out-of-plumbness. According to C2.2a, the direct modeling of imperfections is one method to account for the effect of initial imperfections. However, in many situations, the expected displacements may not be known or easily predicted.
Requirements for the design of structural stability are given in the AISC 360 – 14th Ed. Chapter C. In particular, the direct analysis method provisions, previously located in Appendix 7 of the AISC 360 – 13th Ed., are described in detail. This method is considered an alternative to the effective length method, which in turn eliminates the need for effective length (K) factors other than 1.0.
