    The chapter discusses the stiffness method for analyzing beams, including defining member and structure stiffness matrices, and using those matrices to solve for unknown displacements and reactions.

    The stiffness method expresses the relationship between forces and displacements in a structure using stiffness matrices. It is used to analyze beams by first defining member stiffness matrices, then assembling those into a structure stiffness matrix which relates the total load and displacement vectors.

    Beam member stiffness matrices relate forces and displacements locally for each member. The structure stiffness matrix is obtained by assembling member matrices at connected nodes. Member influence coefficients are algebraically summed at connections.

    • Beam-Structure Stiffness Matrix
    • Application of the Stiffness Method for
    Beam Analysis
    15-1 Preliminary Remarks
    • Member and node identification
    – Each element must be free from load and
    have a prismatic cross section
    – Nodes of each element are located at a
    support or at points where
    • members are connected together
    • an external force is applied
    • cross-sectional area suddenly changes
    • vertical or rotational displacement at a point is to
    be determined
    15-1 Preliminary Remarks
    • Global and member (local) coordinates
    – identified using x, y, z axes
    – local or member x’, y’, z’ coordinates

    ※ Right-handed
    coordinate system
    15-1 Preliminary Remarks
    • Kinematic indeterminacy
    – Effects of bending and shear can be
    expressed by two degrees of freedom,
    vertical displacement and rotation
    – Will be identified by code numbers
    – The lowest code numbers to identify
    unknown displacement, while the highest
    numbers for known displacement

    • structure stiffness matrix K can be


    obtained by assembling member stiffness

    • Where several members are connected at
    a node, their member stiffness influence
    coefficients will have the same position in
    the K matrix and therefore must be
    algebraically added
