Stiffness Matrix Method
Stiffness Matrix Method
It is a matrix method that makes use of
the members' stiffness relations for
computing member forces and
displacements in structures. The
direct stiffness method is the most
common implementation of the finite
element method (FEM).

Plane Truss
A plane truss is a structure composed of bar
elements that all lie in a common plane and are
connected by frictionless pins. The plane truss
also must have loads acting only in the common
plane and all loads must be applied at the nodes
or joints.

A plane truss is defined as a two- dimensional


framework of straight prismatic members
connected at their ends by frictionless hinged
joints, and subjected to loads and reactions
that act only at the joints and lie in
the plane of the structure
