4 Assign the degrees of freedom
1
Note: Number the arrows at each joint that1 can displace 1
Translation along 'X' axis is numbered first for each joint
2
Start from lowest numbered joint that will translate
Specify each member with a number enclosed in a square
3
Specify each node (joint) with a number enclosed
2 in a circle

ΔX Xjb - Xja This is simply the length of the member's X component. X-coordinate
ΔY Yjb - Yja Follows ΔX
L Member length
cosθ ΔX/L
sinθ ΔY/L
Tip: You can drag-copy these fromulae
Displacement Matrix
Formula:
mmult(inverse of S, joint load)
ctrl+shift+ENTER
You should have your vertical matrix with the corresponding displacements of the RDOF
DOF Displcement

Procedure:
For each member, determine the displacements of its RDOF from the Displacement Matrix
Ex:
For member 2, from Table 4, its RDOF are the following:
M2 1 2 0 0
TRANSFORMATION MATRIX
cosθ sinθ 0 0
T= -sinθ cosθ 0 0 This matrix will transform both the A-
0 0 cosθ sinθ but since A and B ends are numericall
0 0 -sinθ cosθ from the Transformation Matrix
t= cosθ sinθ
-sinθ cosθ
Done! :)
ΔX will be 16' - 0
ΔY will be 12' - 0
X component. X-coordinate of B joint subtracted by X-coordinate of A joint
Note:
Joint loads on supports are not
considered UNLESS the support
is free to translate due to
the said load
Ex:
or
P Py
only Py
will be considered
Px
This sub-matrix will generate Axial forces that follow the convention:
Tensile Force is positive
Example 1: Determine the member forces and support reactions of the given structure using matrix formulation of stiffness method
