column stability behaviour, namely: (i) end fixity conditions, (ii)
Mill buildings are heavy industrial structures within which the splice stiffness and location, (iii) the ratio of segment lengths,

Connection to roof structure strength of columns by multiple column curves [10]. The concept
of the so-called equivalent length is thus crucial.
The AISC steel design guide no. 7 [11] adopts a procedure based
on the design of each segment as individual members, subjected to

the associated load cases. This guide provides tables to determine
effective length factors for several end condition types, as a func-
tion of the ratio of (i) the segment lengths, (ii) the segment second
moment of areas and (iii) the applied axial loads at the top of the
column and at the stepped level [4]. These effective lengths are
then used in the interaction formulae for designing beam-columns
adopted in the AISE technical report no. 13 [12] that are nearly
identical to the equations presented in the AISC standard no.
