Abstract
In this study, the results of "Moment Magnification" method provided are compared with those obtained by applying second order theory and the order of accuracy is examined. The bending moments of slender columns of chosen typical frames are obtained by applying moment magnification method and compared with those found by the second order theory. The error ranges are found to be quite high in positive (safe) direction. In order to resolve this drawback a method is developed and applied to typical frames. In this method second order effects are represented by fictitious loads. Average error order is found to be ± 4.6 % when this method is applied to typical frames. It is concluded that this method can be used successfully in practical applications.
