Shell element was used to simulate thin-walled piers. Mander constitutive model was adopted for analysis about the material nonlinearity. By finite displacement theory the geometric nonlinearity effect was reckoned in stability analysis based on Updated Lagrangian formulation. Nonlinear stability analysis during different construction stages indicates that the stability of pier in cantilever stage is weakest. Considered the dual non-linearity, the stability coefficient descends distinctly.

This paper presents a one-dimensional (1D) finite element formulation for the nonlinear stability analysis of framed structures with semi-rigid (SR) connections. By applying the updated Lagrangian incremental formulation and the nonlinear displacement field of thin-walled cross sections, the equilibrium equations of a straight beam element are first developed. Force recovering is performed according to the external stiffness approach. Material nonlinearity is introduced for an elastic-perfectly plastic material through the plastic hinge formation at finite element ends. To account for the SR connection behavior, a special transformation procedure is developed. The effectiveness of the numerical algorithm discussed is validated through the test problems.
