2. Definition Of Indeterminate
Structure
2
A structure of any type is classified as
statically indeterminate when the number of
unknown reaction or internal forces exceeds
the number of equilibrium equations available
for its analysis. Most of structures are statically
indeterminate
For example, reinforced concrete buildings
are almost always statically indeterminate.

3. Moment Coefficient Method
3
The ACI Code provides tables of moment
coefficient
for a variety of conditions. These coefficients
are based on elastic analysis but also account
for inelastic redistribution.
The expressions for moment take the form of
coefficient multiplied by total factored load per
unit length on the span & the length of the
clear span.

4. History Of Moment Coefficient
Method
4
The Moment Coefficient Method included for the
first time in 1963 ACI Code is applicable to twoway slabs supported on four sides of each slab
panel by walls, steel beams.
Although, not included in 1977 and later versions
of ACI code,its continued use is permissible under
the ACI 318-08 code provision (13.5.1). Visit ACI
13.5.1.relatively deep, stiff, edge beams.

5. Advantage

The coefficients give more exact analysis.
Significant economy can be achieved by making a
more precise analysis.
There should be no reversal of moments at the
critical design sections near midspan or at the
support faces.
