This paper deals with sequential analysis coupled with an optimized substructure technique modeled on 3D-frame construction process. This model handles the hypothesis that any subpart of the entire structure can be constructed at a time. On a realistic 3D-frame building, permanent gravity load (dead load), variable gravity loads (construction load, live load) and non-gravity loads or effects (time...
