Question 1: Using stiffness method, determine the displacement of node 1

and the force in member 2. Take A = 1.0 in2 and E = 29000 ksi.

Question 2: With A = 0.001m2 and E = 200GP a, using stiffness method

find the vertical displacement of node 4.

Question 3: For structure shown in figure 3, take E = 200GP a and I =

200 × 106 mm4 . Find all the reactions at the support using stiffness method.
Note that the support at C settles down by 10mm.

Question 4: For the structure shown in figure 4 determine all the support
reactions. Take E = 200GP a and I = 200 × 106 mm4 .

Question 9: A two-span continuous beam (AB = 4 m and BC = 5 m, E

= 200000 M P a, I = 500 × 106 mm4 , supports B and C are roller) is shown
as below. Support C settles downward 45 mm. Find out all reactions due
to support settlement and draw BMD. There is no external load is applied
in the beam. Use direct stiffness method.

Question 10: Draw Bending moment and shear force diagram of the fol-
lowing frame. Use direct stiffness method.
