Matrix Analysis Of Structure Stiffness Approach

Description

ABOUT  THE BOOK

This book is intended for learners with fundamental knowledge of Structural Analysis and STAAD Pro. Stiffness method is usually recognized as matrix method. The stiffness method is useful to computer programming and is widely used for structural analysis of continuous beams, Plane and Space Trusses, and Plane Frame and Plane Grids.
The prominence in the book is on describing fundamentals of stiffness approach to solve the structural analysis problems. Use of numbering the joints and members to solve the complex Structural Engineering problems associated to Analysis of structures has been demonstrated. The transformation of forces and displacement from local axes to global axes and vice versa is thoroughly explained in this book. The final output of analysis are explained in terms of shear force and bending moment diagrams, which are useful for structural designing aspects.
This book is useful for undergraduate students of Civil Engineering and postgraduate students of Structural Engineering and for those preparing for Civil Engineering competitive examinations.
