Folks,
There have been quite a few threads here that have discussed about dividing a member into finite number of pieces and run a P-delta analysis to capture both the Global and local P-delta effects.
I want to know if using such a procedure of breaking up a member into finite pieces to capture the moments due to member curvature between bracing locations due to slenderness is accepted by ACI as an analysis method?
