Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Randal Wood's 1958 paper on the stability of tall buildings is valuable reading for all today's designers of medium-rise steel buildings, and especially those using either BS 5950-1 or Eurocode 3, Part 1.1. The paper describes the fundamentals of stability of buildings with rigid beam–column joints, explains the origins of design methods available in current codes of practice, advises on how best to proportion frames for stability and warns about the need for stability of traditional steel frames. The main focus of the paper was on steel frames in which the beam–column connections were stiff moment-resisting joints. Its effect on design can be judged from its effect on codes of practice. Its effect on construction practice can be seen by the extent that rigidly jointed frames have been used since the paper was written.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
