    This document describes the K-Factor method for calculating shear and moments in beams and columns. It involves 8 steps: 1) computing the stiffness (k), 2) calculating girder factors, 3) calculating column factors, 4) adding factors to both ends of the column, 5) solving for moment factors, 6) solving for moment factors using girder and column factors and stiffness (k), 7) solving for column moment factors and end moments, and 8) solving for girder end moments.
