Qualitative Influence Lines
The Muller-Breslau principle states:
The influence lineinfluence line for a function (reaction, shear, moment) is to the same scale as the deflected )shape of the beam when the beam is acted on by the function.
To draw the deflected shape properly, the ability of the beam to resist the applied function must be removed.
