Briefly explains the difference between Flexibility Method and Stiffness Method. List the advantages and disadvantages of Flexibility Method. (CO2 : PO2-5 marks) b. A beam as shown in Figure QI(b) is supported by aroller at B and C and fixed at A. The beam carries a uniform load of 20 kNim at span BC. The beam has constant properties of the modulus of elasticity, E of 200 kN/mm? and moment of inertia of 2.8 x 107 mm. ‘Using the flexibility method, determine the deflection at B and the reaction at all support.
