3m 6m
EI constant
Procedure
Develop flexibility matrix
A = (1/2)*(2P1/3EI)*(6)*(3+6/3) (1/2)*(P1/3EI)*3*(2*3/3)
P1
A 21 B B A = 9P1/EI
21 L/3 d B B = A /L = P1/EI
1
A 1 = d - B
L/3 L/3 L/3
d = (1/2)*6*2P1/3EI d = 2P1/EI
1 = 11 = P1/EI
2P1/3EI
L/3 = (2L/3)* B L/3 = (6P1/EI)
+ 21 = Moment of area of M/EI diagram between L/3 and B taken about L/3
21 = (1/2)*(2L/3)*(2P1/3EI)*(1/3)*(2L/3) 21 = 4P1/EI
