Abstract
Several methods of calculating corrected effective length factors for unbraced frames are presented and discussed. In addition, an alternate format is suggested for the ASD beam-column interaction equations. The design of selected columns in a story of a 27-story moment frame are used as a method of comparison for the different methods.
