Mohr’s “area-moment” method
In applications where the slope or deflection of beams or cantilevers is required at only one position, and in
particular where loading systems are relatively simple, the Mohr moment-area method provides a rapid solution.

Conjugate Beam Method
Conjugate beam method was developed by H. Muller-Breslau in the year 1865. This method relies only on
the principles of statics, and hence its application will be more familiar.
dQ/dx = w; d2M/dx2 = w
di/dx = M/EI d2y/dx2 = M/EI
On integrating, Q = ∫wdx; M = ∫(∫wdx) dx
i = y =
By the above equations, shear Q compares with the slope i, the moment M compares with the displacement
y, and the external load w compares with the M/EI .
If the beam loaded with w is said to be real beam, and the beam loaded with M/EI is considered to be called
as a conjugate beam, then the following two theorems relate the real and conjugate beams.
Theorem 1: The slope at a point in the real beam is numerically equal to the shear at the corresponding point
in the conjugate beam.
Theorem 2: The displacement of a point in the real beam is numerically equal to the moment at the
corresponding point in the conjugate beam.
Conjugate beam supports: When drawing the conjugate beam it is important that the shear and moment
developed at the supports of the conjugate beam account for the corresponding slope and displacement of
the real beam at its supports, a consequence of theorem 1 and 2. For example, a pin or roller support at the
end of the real beam provides zero displacement, but the beam has a non zero slope. Consequently the
conjugate beam must be supported by a pin or roller, since this support has zero moment but has a shear or
end reaction. The equivalent support conditions of conjugate beam compared to real beam supports is
shown in the table below.

Procedure for analysis
The following procedure provides a method that may be used to determine the displacement and slope at a
point on the elastic curve of a beam using conjugate beam method.
Conjugate beam
Draw the conjugate beam for the real beam. This beam has the same length as the real beam and
has corresponding supports as listed in the above table.
In general, if the real support allows a slope, the conjugate support must develop a shear, and if the
real support allows a displacement, the conjugate support must develop a moment.
The conjugate beam is loaded with the real beam’s M/EI diagram. This loading is assumed to be
distributed over the conjugate beam and is directed upward when M/EI is positive and downward
when M/EI is negative. In other words, the loading always acts away from the beam.
Equilibrium

Using the equations of equilibrium determine the reactions in the conjugate beam’s supports.
Section the conjugate beam at the point where the slope i and displacement y of the real beam
are to be determined. At the section show the unknown shear Q’ and moment M’ acting in their
positive sense.
Determine the shear and moment using the equations of equilibrium. Q’ and M’ equal i and y
respectively, for the real beam. In particular, if these values are positive, the slope is counter
clockwise and the displacement is upward

ENERGY METHOD
External Work And Strain Energy Most energy methods are based on the conservation of energy principles, which states that the work
done by all the external forces acting on a structure Ue , is transformed into internal work or strain
energy,U i , which is developed when the structure deforms. Mathematically this can be written as:
Ue Ui …………. (1)
External work- Force. When a force F undergoes a displacement dx in the same direction as the
force, the work done is dUe F dx .If the total displacement is x, the work becomes x
Ue F dx 0
………… (2)
If the magnitude of F is gradually increased from zero to some limiting value F=P, the final
elongation of the bar becomes . If the material has a linear elastic response, then
Substituting this value of F and integrating from zero to , we get 1
F (P / )x .
Ue P 2
………… (3)
External work- Moment. The work of a moment is defined by the product of the magnitude of the
moment M and the angle dthrough which it rotates, that is, dU M d. If the total angle of
rotation is radians, the work becomes
Ue M d0
………. (4)
As in the case of force, if the moment is applied gradually to a structure having linear elastic response
from zero to M, the work is then 1
Ue M 2
…………. (5)
Strain Energy-Axial Force. When an axial force N is applied gradually to the bar, it will strain the material such that the external work done by N will be converted into strain energy, which is stored in
the bar. Provided the material is linear elastic, Hooke’s law is valid, E , and if the bar has
constant cross sectional area A and length L, the normal stress is N / A and the final strain is
/ L. Consequently, N / A E(/ L) , and the final deflection is

Strain Energy- Bending. Consider the beam shown below, which is distorted by the gradually applied loading P and w . These loads create an internal moment M in the beam at a section located a distance x from the left support. The resulting rotation of the differential element dx can be found
from the differential equation d(M / EI )dx . Consequently, the strain energy, or work stored in
the element, is determined from Eq(5) since the internal moment is gradually developed. Hence, 2

CASTIGLIANO’S THEOREM FOR TRUSES
If the displacement of a point is to be determined, the theorem states that it is equal to the first
partial derivative of the strain energy in the structure with respect to a force acting at the point and
in the direction of displacement.
In a similar manner, the slope at a point in a structure is equal to the first partial derivative of the
strain energy in the structure with respect to a couple moment acting at the point and in the
direction of rotation. Mathematically:

Internal force N
Determine the force N in each member caused by both the real loads and the variable force P.
Assume tensile forces are positive and compressive forces are negative.
Compute the respective partial derivative N / P for each member.
After N and N / P have been determined, assign P its numerical value if it has replaced a
real force on the truss. Otherwise, set P equal to zero.
Castigliano’s Theorem
Apply Castigliano’s theorem to determine the desired displacement . It is important to retain
the algebraic signs for corresponding values of N and N / P

If the resultant sum NN / PL / AE is positive, is in the same direction as P. If a
negative value results, is opposite to P.

VIRTUAL WORK METHOD
The principle of virtual work was developed by John Bernoulli in 1717 and is sometimes referred to
as the unit-load method. It provides a general means of obtaining the displacement and slope at a
specific point on a structure, be it a beam, frame or truss.
TRUSSES
This method can be used to determine the displacement of a truss joint when the truss is subjected to
an external loading, temperature change, or fabrication errors.
External loading: - for the purpose of explanation let us consider the vertical displacement of
joint B of the truss shown. P1
P2
B
Here a typical element of the truss would be one of its members having a length L. If the applied
loadings P1 and P2 cause a linear elastic material response, then this element deforms an
amount L NL / AE , where N is the normal or axial force in the member, caused by the loads.
Applying the principles of virtual work, the virtual work equation for the truss becomes nNL
Where:
1.AE
1= external virtual unit load acting on the truss joint in the direction of
n = internal virtual normal force in a truss member caused by the external virtual
unit load
= external joint displacement caused by the real loads on the truss
N = internal normal force in a truss member caused by the real loads on the truss
L = length of a member
A = cross-sectional area of a member
E = modulus of elasticity of a member
Here the external virtual unit load creates internal virtual forces n in each of the truss members. The
real loads then cause the truss joint to be displaced in the same direction as the virtual unit load,
and each member is displaced NL / AE in the same direction as its respective n force. Consequently,
the external virtual work 1. equals the internal virtual work or the internal(virtual) strain energy
stored in all the truss members, that is nNL / AE .
Temperature: In some cases, truss members may change their length due to temperature. If is the
coefficient of thermal expansion for a member and T is the change in its temperature, the change in
Theory of Structure I (Ceng 2102) 2007/2014
ASTU, Dept. of C Eng., Prepared by: Melkamu E. Page 28
length of a member is L T L . Hence, we can determine the displacement of a selected truss
joint due to this temperature change as follows.
1. = nT L
Procedure for analysis
The following procedure may be used to determine the displacement of a given joint.
Virtual forces n
Place the unit load on the truss at the joint where the desired displacement is to be determined.
The load should be in the same direction as the specified displacement, e.g. horizontal or
vertical.
With the unit load so placed, and all the real loads removed from the truss, use the method of
joints or the method of sections and calculate the internal n force in each truss member.
Assume that tensile forces are positive and compressive forces are negative.
Real forces N
Use the method of sections or method of joints to determine the N force in each member.
These forces are caused only by the real loads acting on the truss.
Virtual- work equation
Apply the equation of virtual work, to determine the desired displacement. It is important to
retain the algebraic sign for each of the corresponding n and N forces when substituting these
terms into the equation.
If the resultant sum nNL / AE is positive, the displacement is in the same direction as
the unit load. If a negative value results, is opposite to the unit load.
When applying 1. = nT L , realize that if any of the members undergoes an increase in
temperature; T

will be positive, whereas a decrease in temperature results in a negative

Strains due to bending are the primary cause of beam or frame deflections.

Here the displacement of point A is to be determined. To compute a virtual unit load acting in
the direction of is placed on the beam at A, and the internal virtual moment m is determined by the
method of sections at an arbitrary location x from the left support. When the real loads act on the
beam, point A is displaced . Provided the material acts in a linear elastic manner due to these loads,
the element dx deforms or rotates d(M EI
)dx . Here M is the internal moment at x caused by the
real loads. Consequently, the external virtual work done by the unit load is 1. = m(M / EI )dx .
Summing the effects of all elements dx along the beam requires an integration, and therefore,

to be determined, a unit couple is applied at the point, and the corresponding internal moments m
have to be determined. Since the work of the unit couple is 1., then
