摘要:Different aspects of Eurocode 3 General Method (GM) approaches are discussed in this paper. The purpose of present study is to improve the application of GM approach for both beam-columns without intermediate lateral-torsional restraints and with these restraints. The results from the proposed GM are compared with those from Eurocode 3-1-1 interaction equations according to Method 1 and Method 2. A better consistency between the developed GM approach and the Eurocode's interaction equation approach than Eurocode 3 GM approach is observed.
