CANTILEVER METHOD
The cantilever method is based on the
following three assumptions:
1. A hinge is placed at the center of each
girder, since this is assumed to be a point of
zero moment.
2. A hinge is placed at the center of each
column, since this is assumed to be a point
of zero moment.
3. The axial stress in a column is proportional
to its distance from the centroid of the
cross-sectional areas of the column at a
given floor level. Since stress is equal to
force per area, then in the special case of
the column having equal cross sectional
areas, the force in a column is also
4proportional to its distance from the

Example:
1. Use the cantilever method to estimate the forces in the laterally
loaded frame shown. Assume that the area of the interior columns
is twice as large as the area of the exterior columns.
• First solve for the location of the centroid
