When we say portal frame - meron dalawang column at isang beam na nag coconnect

dito

**2 assumption for portal method**

-there are points of inflection at the center of the girder
and at the midheight of the column
-the total horizontal shear on each storey is divided between
the columns of that storey so that each interior columns
carries twice as much as the exterior columns

**Steps on how to solve Portal Method**

- apply 1st and 2nd assumption
-solve for the value of v (shear)
-cut each joint at point of inflection
-solve the values of shear and moment at each joint
using equilibrium equations
