ABSTRACT: This paper presents an efficient computer method for nonlinear inelastic analysis of three-
dimensional composite steel-concrete frameworks. The proposed formulation is intended to model the
geometrically nonlinear inelastic behaviour of composite frame elements using only one element per physi-
cal member. The behaviour model accounts for material inelasticity due to combined bi-axial ...
