Explanation:

Rigid-jointed frames

  • In a rigid jointed frame, the joints are considered to rotate as a whole.
  • These are framed structures in which the members transmit applied loads by axial, shear, and bending effects.
  • Rigid-joints (moment connections) are designed to transfer axial and shear forces in addition to bending moments between the connected members.
