Mighty Duck Arena Anaheim, CA
Architect: Frank Gehry
Assume: Glue-lam ~ 10x 72
Assuming beam action
would result in:
L/d ratio ~ 40
Large bending stress
Large deflection
Small axial stress
Actual frame action effect:
Inflection points which reduce
effective length and bending
stress
Requires lateral restrains
Lateral restrains
increases compressive stress

Early example of
concrete moment frame with
shear wall for added stiffness
the mixed system provides
fail-save seismic performance
New ductile concrete frames use
Less steel
(to cause ductile steel failure)
More concrete
(to prevent brittle concrete failure)
Requires:
Column rebars through beam
Beam rebars through column
