This document discusses the slope deflection method for analyzing non-sway frames with cantilevers. It provides steps for applying the slope deflection method, including determining degrees of freedom, calculating fixed end moments from applied loads, analyzing effects of joint rotations, establishing equilibrium equations, and determining bending moments, shear forces, axial forces, and the deformed shape. Questions are also posed about analyzing properties of different frame configurations using this method.

TO APPLY THE SLOPE DEFLECTION METHOD WE NEED TO KNOW
THE EFFECT OF LOADS applied along the bars IN THE BAR ENDS
(end moments produced by the loads applied along the bars)
THE EFFECT OF JOINT ROTATIONS IN THE BAR ENDS
(end moments produced by the joints rotations)
THE EFFECT OF JOINT DISPLACEMENTS IN THE BAR ENDS
(end moments produced by the joints displacements)
