Assignment 1: (Last date of submission is 6th july'18)
Q.1  Calculate the reaction at B from the flexibility method of analysis.

     Q.2  Develop the stiffness matrix for the beam AB shown in fig. with reference to the coordinates given.

               

 

Q.3 The beam AB as shown in fig. is fixed at both the ends and is subjected to a concentrated load P and a couple M at the midpoint. It is assumed that the beam has constant flexural rigidity EI. Calculate the values of redundants Q₁ and Q₂ by the flexibility method.





Assignment 2:  (Last date of submission is 13th july'18 )
