== 6.1.1 This chapter shall apply to methods of analysis,
modeling of members and structural systems, and calculation
of load effects.

= R6.1 — Scope
 The provisions of this chapter apply to analyses used to
determine load effects for design.
 Section 6.2 provides general requirements that are
applicable for all analysis procedures.
 Section 6.2.4 directs the licensed design professional
to specific analysis provisions that are not contained in
this chapter. Sections 6.2.4.1 and 6.2.4.2 identify analysis
provisions that are specific to two-way slabs and walls.
 Section 6.3 addresses modeling assumptions used in
establishing the analysis model.
 Section 6.4 prescribes the arrangements of live loads that
are to be considered in the analysis.
 Section 6.5 provides a simplified method of analysis for
nonprestressed continuous beams and one-way slabs that
can be used in place of a more rigorous analysis when the
stipulated conditions are satisfied.
 Section 6.6 includes provisions for a comprehensive linear
elastic first-order analysis. The effects of cracked sections
and creep are included in the analysis through the use of
effective stiffnesses.
 Section 6.7 includes provisions for linear elastic second-order
analysis. Inclusion of the effects of cracking and creep
is required.
 Section 6.8 includes provisions for inelastic analysis.
 Section 6.9 includes provisions for the use of the finite
element method.
