Abstract: ABSTRACT: As newly developed approach, the Integrated Force Method (IFM) is applied as the principal approach for analysis of indeterminate space frames. For automatic generation of equilibrium equations, computer codes are developed and then nodal displacement, internal forces, support reactions and deformations are calculated using the aforementioned equations and compatibility conditions In the first two programs the member forces of space frames are calculated as primary unknowns. Since obtaining the compatibility condition is one of initial steps in IFM, two codes were developed that address this issue through different approaches which are null space and singular value decomposition. In third code the displacement method known as Dual Integrated Force Method is applied. Generation of global stiffness matrix is the initial step in Dual Integrated Force Method. In contrast with the previous two methods, in Dual Integrated Force Method displacements are the main unknowns. Keywords: Integrated force method, Space Frame, Equilibrium Equation. …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ÖZ: Yeni geliştirilen bir yaklaşım olarak, Entegre Kuvvet Yöntemi statik belirsiz uzay çerçeve analizi için temel yaklaşım olarak uygulanır. Denge denklemleri otomatik elde ede bilmesi için, bilgisayar kodları geliştirildi ve daha sonra noktasal yer değiştirme, iç kuvvetleri, ve deformasyonlar söz konusu denklemler ve uygunluk şartlari kullanılarak hesaplanır. İlk iki programlarda uzay çerçeve eleman kuvvetleri hesaplanır.Uyumluluk koşulu elde ede bilmek için ilk adımlardan biri bu ana bilinmeyenler olarak konuda singular value decomposıtion ve null space ayrışımı olan farklı yaklaşımlar geliştirilmiştir. Üçüncü kod Çift Tümleşik Kuvvet Yöntemi olarak bilinen deplasman yöntemi uygulanır. Küresel rijitlik matrisinin Nesil Çift Entegre Kuvvet Yöntemi ilk adımdır. Daha önceki yöntem ile tezat olarak, yer değiştirme ana bilinmeyenlerdir. Anahtar kelimeler: Entegre Kuvvet Yöntemi, Uzay çerçeve, Denge denklemleri.
