B. Description of Building Model<br />

The example problem for this tutorial is a steel-frame building two bays wide by two bays deep,<br />

and two stories high. The plans and elevation in Figure B-1 show the basic dimensions and<br />

member sizes for the model. The building has a moment frame lateral force-resisting system in<br />

the X-direction and a braced frame lateral force-resisting system in the Y-direction. All steel is<br />

Fy = 36 ksi. The second floor is concrete over metal deck, and is assumed to be a rigid<br />

diaphragm in the model. The roof deck has no concrete, so it is not modeled as rigid.<br />
