    Slope deflection method:

    Slope deflection method is a displacement


    method used for the analysis of beams and
    frames. This method was introduced by
    George A Maney and was significantly used
    for more than a decade until the development
    of the Moment distribution method.
    Steps involved in solving a problem by
    slope deflection method:
    1.Determine the fixed end moments by considering
    each span as a fixed beam
    2. Write the slope deflection equations for each
    span
    3. Write the equilibrium equations for each joint
    4. Solve the equilibrium equations and slope
    deflection equations for finding rotations(θ) and
    settlements (Δ)
    5. Substitute the values of Δ and θ and find the
    final end moments (M)
    6. Draw BMD and SFD
    Slope deflection equations for any
    member AB of span L.
    MAB = MFAB+2EI/L[2θΑ+θΒ-3δ/L]
    MBA= MFBA+2EI/L[θA+2θB-3δ/L]
    where,
    MAB & MBA= Final end moments at ends A & B
    respectively in any member AB.
    MFAB & MFBA = Fixed end moments at ends A and B
    respectively in any member AB.
    θA & θB=Rotations at ends A & B respectively in
    any member AB.
    L = Span of member AB
    δ = settlement
    Q: Analyse the continuous beam ABCD shown in
    figure by slope deflection method.
    Solution:
    Step 1: Fixed end moments
    MFAB = -wL²/12
    = -(30×4²)/12 = -40KNm

    MFBA = wL²/12
    = (30×4²)/12 = 40KNm

    MFBC = -wab²/L²
    = -(60×2×2²)/4² = -30KNm

    MFCB = wba²/L²
    = (60×2×2²)/4² = 30KNm
    MFCD = -wab²/L²
    = -(60×2×4²)/6² = -53.33KNm

    MFDC = wba²/L²
    = (60×4×2²)/6² = 26.667KNm

    Step 2: Slope deflection equations


    MAB = MFAB+2EI/L[2θΑ+θΒ-3δ/L]
    (since θA=0 & δ=0)
    = -40+2EI/4[2(0)+θB-0]
    = -40+0.5EIθB
    MBA= MFBA+2EI/L[θA+2θB-3δ/L]
    (since θA=0)
    =40+2EI/4[0+2θB-0]
    =40+EIθB

    MBC= -30+2EI/4[2θB+θC-0]
    =-30+EIθB+0.5EIθC

    MCB= 30+2EI/4[θΒ+2θC-0]
    =30+0.5EIθΒ+EIθC

    MCD= -55.33+2EI/6[2θC+θD-0]
    = -55.33+0.667EIθC+0.33EIθD

    MDC= 26.667+2EI/6[θC+2θD-0]
    =26.667+0.33EIθC+0.667EIθD
    Step 3: Equilibrium equations
    ΣMB=0

    MBA+MBC=0
    or 40+EIθB-30+EIθB+0.5EIθC =0
    or 2EIθB+0.5EIθC= -10 _____(1)

    ΣMC=0

    MCB+MCD=0
    or 30+0.5EIθΒ+EIθC-55.33+0.667EIθC+0.33EIθD
    or 1.5EIθB+5EIθC+EIθD+70 ___(2)
    ΣMD=0

    MDC=26.667+0.33EIθC+0.667EIθD = 0
    or EIθC+2EIθD= -80 _______(3)

    on solving equations 1,2 & 3 we get,


    EIθC= 28.485
    EIθB= -12.121
    EIθD -54.243
    Step 4: Final end moments
    Final end moments are calculated by substituting the
    values of EIθC, EIθB & EIθD in the slope deflection
    equations.
    Hence,
    MAB=-40+0.5(-12.121)
    =-46.061KNm

    MBA = 40-12.121=27.879KNm

    MBC = -27.879KNm

    MCB=30+0.5(-12.121)+28.485
    =52.425KNm

    MCD= -52.425KNm

    MDC=0
    BMD

    80
    60 60
    52.425
    061
