2. A simple beam example with two degree of freedom
Each node of the beam will have two degrees of freedom:
a vertical displacement (corresponding to shear) and
a rotation (corresponding to bending moment)
•In this method counterclockwise (anticlockwise) moments and counter-clockwise rotations
are taken as positive
• Hence, there are two nodes and 4 degrees of freedom for a beam element.
resulting stiffness matrix is of the order 4x4
3. Stiffness matrix
• The elements of the stiffness matrix indicate the forces exerted on
the member by the restraints at the ends of the member when
unit displacements are imposed at each DOF of the member.
Impart unit displacement at 1: see the reaction force at other DOF (figure 1)
Impart unit displacement at 3:see the reaction at other DOF (figure 2)
5. Provide unit displacement at translation DOF (1,3)

11. Stiffness matrix for a beam Element
For the beam element, One column has a stiffness values correspond to two different
degrees of freedom (u and θ) and the equilibrium of two different DoF is not defined and
therefore the sum of every single column of the element stiffness matrix will never be
zero.
12. We need to consider the fixed end moment that is acting on the beam
13. Load in Beam
• Load directly acting at the joint: as load vector
• Load on the member: when the load acting on the member then
the load can be taken into account by calculating fixed end action
(Shearing force and bending moment)
• Fixed end action ((Shearing force and bending moment)) can be
transformed into joint loads along with actual load acting at the
joint as follows

EA EA

f K x f x K f f

M K f

F K U f
14. Solution Steps
Step1 : find the global stiffness matrix
SteP 2: Load: two types
(i) active force acting at the joint
(ii) if the load act on the member( in between the joint): load needs to
convert equivalent joint end (fixed end action) consider it as active force
EAF K U f
Step3: Now solve for reaction: (two part):
Part1 : FD (force obtained from force-deformation relation)
Part 2: fixed end moment (FE)
So total reaction: FR= FD – Ftotal

39. Conjugate beam
Now consider a determinate beam, subjected to
moment M’ at end B and assume that rotation
(θA2, θB2)occur due to applied moment M’
First consider SS beam and apply
moment ‘M’ at A and draw
conjugate beam diagram
40. Conclusion
if a positive moment ‘M’ is applied to the hinged end of a beam then a positive moment of
(M/2) will be transferred to the fixed end
42. Alternate:
• Such support settlements induce fixed end moments in the beams
so as to hold the end slopes of the members as zero
• Applied load is zero, so fixed end
moment is Mf=0
• No rotation pure translation so θA,
θB =0
• MAB=-(6EI/L)Δ
• MBA= =(6EI/L)Δ
