joint moments found from the moment distribution in Figure 2(c) and 2(d). The resultant moments
are then found by adding these corrected moments to those obtained for the frame in Figure 2(b).
Step 2:
In Excel, write the Joint names in a row covering as many columns as the number of members
connected to that joint e.g., joint E connects three members, as shown in the figure 2. The resulting
excel sheet will look like shown in figure 3.

Now Member names, depending on the joints they join, are fed in the next row, as shown in Figure
4. Note that the names of the members under a particular joint (e.g., E) starts with the letter
representing the joint (i.e., ED,EB,EF). Also, the members with the same names (e.g., BC and CB) are
written close together for easy crossover, but its not nessessery.

Step 7.
Carry over the distributed moment to the other end of each member. As the prismatic members
carry only half of the distributed moment, the half of the released moment is formulated in the next
row from the relative member. For instance, half carried moment MEB is shown in figure 11.

Step 8.
Now copy the Release and Carry O. rows and keep pasting them bellow, consecutively, until the
last row of Carry O. shows numbers approaching to zero, as shown in figure 12.

Now finally, find the sum of all the moments in each column starting from the FEM as shown in
Figure 13(a). Figure 13(b) shows the moments on the frame

Step 10.
Calculating the sway reactions as in Figure 2(c) and 2(d), we get frames as Figure 14(a) and 14(b) ,
respectively.

As the storey heights are same we have assumed the end moments to be same (i.e., 100kNm)
otherwise these moments should be calculated using assumed values of in the following formula
Now, create two more copies of the excel sheet for solving the two sways, as in Figure 15(a) and
15(b).
