BAB II
PEMBAHASAN
Metode konsisten deformasi adalah salah satu teknik analisis struktur statis tak tentu. Metode
ini sering juga disebut metode gaya atau metode fleksibilitas. Berikut ini disajikan prosedur
yang menjelaskan konsep metode ini untuk menganalisis struktur statis tak tentu berderajat
ketidaktentuan satu atau dua.
Derajat ketidaktentuan struktur ditentukan oleh banyaknya reaksi yang tak diketahui (r),
dikurangi banyaknya persamaan keseimbangan statis (e). Sebagai contoh, perhatikan portal
pada gambar berikut. Banyaknya reaksi eksternal yang tak diketahui ( r ), adalah 5 yaitu X A,
YA, MA, XB dan YB. Banyaknya persamaan keseimbangan statis (e) adalah 3 yaitu ( Fx = 0,
Fy = 0 and M = 0). Dengan demikian derajat ketidaktentuan struktur ( n ) tersebut dihitung
sebagai berikut:
n=r-e
=5-3
=2
Pada gambar 2, portal didukung oleh perletakan jepit pada kedua perletakannya dan pada
batang horizontal dihubungkan oleh sendi. Karena momen pada sendi sama dengan nol, maka
dengan menggunakan syarat keseimbangan di kanan dan kiri sendi akan diperoleh tambahan
persamaan keseimbangan. Persamaan yang diperoleh dari kondisi ini diberi simbul ek. Pada
model struktur ini reaksi yang tidak diketahui (r) sebanyak 6, banyaknya persamaan statik
adalah sebanyak 3 persamaan. Dari kondisi sendi penghubung diperloleh satu kondisi lagi
yaitu ek = 1, sehingga derajat ketidaktentuan (n) menjadi :
2
n = r - (e + ec)
= 6 - (3 + 1)
=2
Memilih redundan
Penentuan redundan pada prinsipnya mengubah model struktur statis tak tentu menjadi statis
tertentu dengan menganggap sebagian reaksi perletakan sebagai redundan. Dengan demikian
perlu memilih reaksi perletakan sebanyak derajat ketidaktentuan (n) sebagai redundan. Pilihan
redundan dapat ditentukan dengan bebas sesuai dengan keinginan. Walaupun demikian
pemilihan redundan sebaiknya mempertimbangkan kemudahan yang diberikan apabila
redundan itu dipilih. Perhatikan gambar 1. XB dan YB dapat dipilih sebagai redundan.
Alternatif lainnya adalah XB dan MA sebagai redundan. Cobalah tentukan alternatif lainnya!
Apabila reaksi yang dianggap redundan telah ditentukan, bagaimanakah model struktur
tersebut setelah beberapa reaksi dianggap redundan?
Hapus reaksi perletakan (restraint) yang terkait dengan redundan terpilih pada struktur statis
tak tentu untuk mendapatkan model struktur statis tertentu. Model statis tertentu ini harus
stabil dan berupa sistem struktur yang logis dan dapat diterima.

Sket garis elastis atau garis lendutan model struktur statis tertentu akibat beban luar, dan
tandai deformasi yang terjadi pada reaksi perletakan yang dihapus (restraint)(lih. gambar 3).
Figure 3(a) - Primary structure Figure 3(b) - Primary structure deflected shape
Hitung deformasi yang berhubungan dengan redundan, misalnya rotasi pada perletakan A (
A0) dan translasi/pergeseran pada perletakan B ( B0). Semua ini dapat dihitung dengan
menggunakan metode yang sudah dipelajari sebelumnya seperti : metode kerja virtual berikut
:
(a) Gambar diagram momen (M0), untuk model struktur statis tertentu dengan beban luar
(lih. Gambar 4(a)(i)). Gambar diagram momen juga dapat dihitung dengan metode
superposisi seperti ditinjukkan oleh gambar 4(a)(ii). Hal ini dapat menyederhanakan
perhitung integral untuk menghitung A0 dan B0.

structure
(b) Berikan beban satuan pada lokasi redundan yang terkait. Ingat untuk redundan berupa
momen, berikan momen satuan. Kalau redundan di A berupa momen, berikan beban
satuan berupa momen di A ( MA= 1 ft-k. Selanjutnya sket garis defleksi atau garis
elastisnya. Berikan notasi deformasi pada setiap reaksi yang dihilangkan ( fba untuk
translasi di titik B dan faa untuk rotasi di titik A). Gambar diagram momen untuk model
statis tertentu akibat beban satuan, liahat gambar 4(b).
Figure 4(b)(i) - Moment diagram with MA = 1 ft-k Figure 4(b)(ii) - Deflected shape with MA = 1 ft-k
(c) Hitung rotasi , A0, pada perletakan A dengan persamaan berikut:
(d) Berikan beban satuan pada redundan berikutnya, misalnya gaya satuan XB = 1 k pada
perletakan B. Sket garis elastisnya, kemudian berikan label setiap deformasi yang terjadi
5
pada setiap reaksi yang dihilangkan.Kemudian gambar diagram momen untuk model
struktur statis tertentu dengan beban satuan tersebut. Lihat gambar 4(c).
Figure 4(c)(i) - Moment diagram with XB = 1 k Figure 4(c)(ii) - Deflected shape with XB = 1 k
(e) Hitung translasi, B0, pada perletakan B menggunakan persamaan berikut:
(f) Hitung deformasi model struktur statis tertentu akibat redundan MA (Gambar 4(b)) atau
redundan XB (Gambar 4(c)). Ini semua dapat diselesaikan dengan menggunakan
persamaan berikut:
Persamaan diatas akan menghasilkan koefisien-koefisien faa, fab, fba, dan fbb. Koefisien
fij menyatakan koefisien yang berkaitan dengan redundan i, yang ditimbulkan
oleh satu satuan beban redundan j.
Tulis persamaan deformasi konsisten yang berkaitan dengan redundan. Dalam hal ini :
(a) Rotasi di perletakan A = 0 karena perletakan A adalah jepit.
(1)
(b) Translasi pada perletakan B = 0 karena perletakan di B adalah sendi sehingga tidak
boleh terjadi translasi horizontal.
6
(2)
Selesaikan persamaan (1) dan (2) pada tahap sebelumnya untuk mengetahui redundan yang
tidak diketahui MA dan XB. Ingat bahwa jika nilai MA dan XB positif, ini berarti bahwa arah
gaya yang diasumsikan pada awal perhitungan ( gambar 4(b) dan 4(c) adalah benar. Jika
negatif, ini berarti arah yang sebenarnya berlawanan dengan yang diasumsikan pada awal
perhitungan.
Reaksi perletakan XA, YA dan YB dari model struktur statis tak tentu dapat ditentukan
dengan memberikan nilai MA dan XB dengan arah sesuai dengan arah sebenarnya,
kemudian gunakan syarat kesetimbangan untuk membuat persamaan kesetimbangan. ( Fx =
0, Fy = 0 and M = 0).
Begitu semua reaksi perletakan dapat ditentukan, diagram gaya normal, lintang dan momen
dapat digambarkan. Berdasarkan data ini, sket garis elastis dapat diperkirakan.
Contoh 1:
Gunakan metoda deformasi konsisten (MDK) untuk menghitung reaksi perletakan, diagram

balok adalah E dan momen inersia penampang balok(I) konstan sepanjang balok.

Pada contoh ini reaksi yang dihilangkan adalah RB, dengan demikian struktur dasarnya
menjadi :
Pada sistem struktur statis tertentu ini akan terjadi deformasi pada B sebesar B0 sebagai
akibat beban luar yang bekerja pada struktur.

Hitung deformasi pada redundan
Berikan beban satuan pada B, kemudian hitung deformasi vertikal pada titik B (fbb).
Figure 5 - Primary structure with unit load applied and resulting deflected shape
Hitung translasi vertikal yang terkait dengan redundan YB pada perletakan B dengan
persamaan berikut.
No. A/EI (A) (k-ft2)/EI (h) pada diagram mb(ft-k) Ai*hi (k2-ft3)/EI
A01 1/3 x 20 x -400/EI = -2666.67/EI 15 -40000/EI
A02 1/2 x 20 x -120/EI = -1200/EI 13.33 -16000/EI
A03 20 x -36/EI = -720/EI 10 -7200/EI
A04 1/2 x 6 x -36/EI = -108/EI 0 0
Total = Q( B0) = -63200/EI
9
Dengan Q = 1 k ;diperoleh
Q(fbb) = 2666.67 (k2-ft3)/EI
fbb = 2666.67 (k-ft3)/EI
Persamaan deformasi konsisten yang terkait dengan redundan YB pada perletakan B adalah :
B0 + fbb * YB = 0 (1)
Persamaan ini sama dengan 0 karena sendi tidak mengijinkan terjadinya translasi vertikal.
Kalikan beban satuan Q pada YB dengan 23,7 untuk mendapatkan reaksi yang sebenarnya.
Jika hasilnya positif, ini berarti reaksinya searah dengan arah beban satuan, demikian juga
sebaliknya.
Berikan nilai hasil perhitungan YB bersama-sama dengan beban luar aslinya.Hitung reaksi
perletakan yang belum diketahui dengan persamaan kesetimbangan. ( Fx = 0, Fy = 0 dan
M = 0).

problem statement
Using the method of consistent deformations, determine the reactions, moments and shears
under the loading conditions shown. The modulus of elasticity (E) and the moment of inertia
(I) are constant for the entire beam.

Figure 1 - Beam structure to analyze
The structure is statically indeterminate to the first degree (r = 4, e = 3, n = r-e = 4-3 = 1).
To solve for this single degree of indeterminacy, the structure has to be reduced to a statically
determinate and stable structure. This is done by removing a redundant support.
The resulting system, ( A0 indicates the resulting deflection or deformation at the location of
the removed redundant for the primary structure).
In this example, the cantilever method is used to develop the moment diagram. (See a Virtual
Work Cantilever Example for a complete description of this step)
Using the virtual work method, calculate the rotational translation of support A that
correponds to the redundant MA. Remove all loads an apply a unit moment in the direction of
the redundant, draw the moment diagram, ma, and sketch the deflected shape due to the unit
moment.
The resulting system, (faa is the deformation caused by the unit load).
Figure 5 - Primary structure with unit load applied and resulting deflected shape
Calculate the rotational translation corresponding to the redundant MA at support A using the
following equation:
13
Calculate the deformation at the redundant, A0. Use the method of virtual work, calculate
the areas on the M0 diagram and multiply each area by the corresponding heights, hi,
measured at the centroid of this area on the ma diagram:
Area No. Area/EI (A) (k-ft2)/EI Height (h) on ma diagram (k-ft) Ai*hi (k2-ft3)/EI
A01 2/3 x 20 x 100/EI = 1333.33/EI -1/2 -666.67/EI
A02 1/2 x 20 x -36/EI = -360/EI -1/3 120/EI
A03 1/2 x 6 x -36/EI = -108/EI 0 0
Total = Q( A0) = -546.67/EI
Calculate the flexibility coefficient, faa, by determining the deformation of the primary
structure when subjected to the redundant load, MA = 1 ft-k.
Again, using the method of virtual work, calculate the areas on the ma diagram and multiply
by the corresponding heights, hi, measured at the centroid of each area:
Area No. Area/EI (A) (k-ft2)/EI Height (h) on ma diagram (k-ft) Ai*hi (k2-ft3)/EI
A11 1/2 x 20 x -1/EI = -10/EI -2/3 6.67/EI
Total = Q(faa) = 6.67/EI
The consistent deformation equation that corresponds to the redundant MA (the moment
reaction at support A) is:
A0 + faa * MA = 0 (1)
This equation is set equal to zero since the fixed support at A does not allow any rotation.
14
solve consistent deformation equation
Multiply the unit moment, Q, at MA by 82 to get the final reaction. The positive answer
indicates that the reaction is in the direction of the applied unit moment.
Impose the value of the calculated MA along with the other applied loads on the original
structure. Calculate the remaining reactions using the three static equilibrium equations, ( Fx
= 0, Fy = 0 and M = 0).

(E) and the moment of inertia (I) are constant for the entire structure.

Figure 1 - Frame structure to analyze
The structure is statically indeterminate to the first degree (r=4, e=3, n = r-e = 4-3 = 1).
To solve for this single degree of indeterminacy, the structure has to be reduced to a statically
determinate and stable structure. This is done by removing a redundant support.
17
determine reactions and draw moment diagram for the primary
structure
Determine the moment diagram M0 due to the applied loads on the primary structure.
note: colors represent one method of dividing the area in the moment diagram to be used in
the visual integration.
18
sketch deflected shape
Sketch an approximate deflected shape for the primary structure, (see Fig. 4). Label the
deflection that occurs in the direction of the redundant at the released support.
Using the virtual work method, calculate the horizontal translation of support D that
corresponds to the redundant XD. Remove all loads and apply a unit force in the direction of
the redundant, draw the moment diagram, md, and sketch the deflected shape due to this unit
load.
19
Figure 6(b) - Moment diagram md with XD = 1 k
Using the method of virtual work, calculate areas on the M0 diagram and multiply each area
by the corresponding heights, hi, measured at the centroid of this area on the md diagram:
Therefore, with Q = 1 k;
Q( D0) = -44296.875 (k2-ft3)/EI
3
D0 = -44296.875 (k-ft )/EI
20
Calculate the flexibility coefficient, fdd, by determining the deformations of the primary
structure when subjected to the redundant load, XD = 1 k.
Again, using the method of virtual work, calculate areas on the md diagram and multiply by
the corresponding heights, hi, measured at the centroid of the area:
Area No. Area/EI (A) (k-ft2)/EI Height (h) on md diagram (k-ft) Ai*hi (k2-ft3)/EI
A11 1/2 x 30 x -15/EI = -225/EI 2/3 x -15 = -10 2250/EI
A12 1/2 x 15 x -15/EI = -112.5/EI 2/3 x -15 = -10 1125/EI
fdd = 3375/EI
Therefore, with Q = 1 k;
Q(fdd) = 3375 (k2-ft3)/EI
fdd = 3375 (k-ft3)/EI
The consistent deformation equation that corresponds to the redundant X1 (the horizontal
reaction at support D) is:
D0 + fdd * X1 = 0 (1)
This equation is set equal to zero since the pinned support at D does not allow any translation
in the direction of the redundant, i.e., in the horizontal direction.
Multiply the unit load, Q, at XD by 13.125 to get the final reaction. The positive answer
indicates that the reaction is in the direction of the applied unit load.
Impose the value of the calculated support reaction at X1 corresponding to the redundant XD,
along with the other applied loads on the original structure. Calculate the remaining reactions
using the three static equilibrium equations, ( Fx = 0, Fy = 0 and M = 0).

and axial load diagrams for the frame in the accompanying figure. The modulus of elasticity
(E) and the moment of inertia (I) are constant for the entire structure.
The structure is statically indeterminate to the first degree(r=4, e=3, n = r-e = 4-3 = 1).

deflection that occurs in the direction of the redundant at the released support.
Using the virtual work method, calculate the vertical translation of support D that
corresponds to the redundant YD. Remove all loads and apply a unit force in the direction of
the redundant, draw the moment diagram, md, and sketch the deflected shape due to this unit
load.
26
Figure 6(a) - Primary structure with unit load applied
Calculate the translation, D0 (see Fig. 5), at Support D using the following equation:
Using the method of virtual work, calculate areas on the M0 diagram and multiply each area
by the corresponding heights, hi, measured at the centroid of this area on the md diagram:
27
Area No. Area/EI (A) (k-ft2)/EI Height (h) on md diagram (k-ft) Ai*hi (k2-ft3)/EI
A01 15 x -300/EI = -4500/EI 30 -135000/EI
A02 1/3 x 15 x -112.5/EI = -562.5/EI 30 -16875/EI
A03 1/2 x 15 x -300/EI = -2250/EI 5/6 x 30 = 25 -56250/EI
Total = Q( D0) = -208125/EI
Therefore, with Q = 1 k ;
Q( D0) = -208125 (k2-ft3)/EI
3
D0 = -208125 (k-ft )/EI
Calculate the flexibility coefficient, fdd, by determining the deformations of the primary
structure when subjected to the redundant load, YD = 1 k .
Again, using the method of virtual work, calculate areas on the md diagram and multiply by
the corresponding heights, hi, measured at the centroid of the area:
Area No. Area/EI (A) (k-ft2)/EI Height (h) on md diagram (k-ft) Ai*hi (k2-ft3)/EI
A11 15 x 30/EI = 450/EI 30 13500/EI
A12 1/2 x 30 x 30/EI = 450/EI 2/3 x 30 = 20 9000/EI
Total = Q(fdd) = 22500/EI
Therefore, with Q = 1 k ;
Q(fdd) = 22500 (k2-ft3)/EI
fdd = 22500 (k-ft3)/EI
The consistent deformation equation that corresponds to the redundant YD (the vertical
reaction at support D) is:
D0 + fdd* YD = 0 (1)
This equation is set equal to zero since the pinned support at D does not allow any translation
in the direction of the redundant, i.e., in the vertical direction.
Impose the value of the calculated support reaction at YD along with the other applied loads
on the original structure. Calculate the remaining reactions using the three static equilibrium
equations, ( Fx = 0, Fy = 0 and M = 0).
All reactions are now known and are used to draw the complete shear and moment diagrams
for the structure.

problem statement
Using the method of consistent deformations, determine the reactions, draw moment, shear,
and axial load diagrams for the frame in the accompanying figure. The modulus of elasticity
(E) and the moment of inertia (I) are constant for the entire structure.
The structure is statically indeterminate to the second degree (r=5, e=3, n = r-e = 5-3 = 2).
To solve for two degrees of indeterminacy, the structure has to be reduced to a statically
determinate and stable structure. This is done by removing two redundant supports.
In this example, the horizontal and vertical reactions at support D are selected as the
redundants to remove in order to obtain a primary determinate structure.

direction of each redundant, draw the moment diagram, m, and sketch the deflected shape
due to the unit load.

Calculate the horizontal translation corresponding to the redundant X1, D1, at support D
using the virtual work equation:
Using the method of virtual work, calculate areas on the M0 diagram and multiply each area

A01 15 x -300/EI = -4500/EI 1/2 x 15 = 7.5 -33750/EI
A02 1/3 x 15 x -112.5/EI = -562.5/EI 3/4 x 15 = 11.25 -6328.125/EI
A03 1/2 x 15 x -300/EI = -2250/EI 0 0/EI
Total = Q( D1) = -40078.125/EI
Therefore, with Q = 1 k;
Q( D1) = -40078.125 (k2-ft3)/EI

D1 = -40078.125 (k-ft )/EI
35

Calculate the horizontal translation corresponding to the redundant X2, D2, at support D.
Again, using the method of virtual work, calculate areas on the M0 diagram and multiply each
area by the corresponding heights, hi, measured at the centroid of this area on the m2 diagram:
Area No. Area/EI (A) (k-ft2)/EI Height (h) on m2 diagram (k-ft) Ai*hi (k2-ft3)/EI
A01 15 x -300/EI = -4500/EI 30 -135000/EI
A02 1/3 x 15 x -112.5/EI = -562.5/EI 30 -16875/EI
A03 1/2 x 15 x -300/EI = -2250/EI 5/6 x 30 = 25 -56250/EI
Total = Q( D2) = -208125/EI
Therefore, with Q = 1 k;
Q( D2) = -208125 (k2-ft3)/EI
3
D2 = -208125 (k-ft )/EI
Calculate the flexibility coefficients, fdd, by determining the deformations of the primary
structure when subjected to the redundant loads.
Again, using the method of virtual work, calculate areas on the m diagrams and multiply by
the corresponding heights, hi, measured at the centroid of each area:
Area No. Area/EI (A) (k-ft2)/EI Height (h) on m1 diagram (k-ft) Ai*hi (k2-ft3)/EI
A11 1/2 x 15 x 15/EI = 112.5/EI 2/3 x 15 = 10 1125/EI
Total = Q(f11) = 1125/EI
Therefore, with Q = 1 k;
Q(f11) = 1125 (k2-ft3)/EI
f11 = 1125 (k-ft3)/EI
Therefore, with Q = 1 k;
Q(f12) = 3375 (k2-ft3)/EI
f12 = 3375 (k-ft3)/EI
Area No. Area/EI (A) (k-ft2)/EI Height (h) on m2 diagram (k-ft) Ai*hi (k2-ft3)/EI

A22 1/2 x 30 x 30/EI = 450/EI 2/3 x 30 = 20 9000/EI
Total = Q(f22) = 122500/EI
Therefore, with Q = 1 k;
Q(f22) = 122500 (k2-ft3)/EI
f22 = 122500 (k-ft3)/EI
Area No. Area/EI (A) (k-ft2)/EI Height (h) on m1 diagram (k-ft) Ai*hi (k2-ft3)/EI
A21 15 x 30/EI = 450/EI 1/2 x 15 = 7.5 3375/EI
A22 1/2 x 30 x 30/EI = 450/EI 0 0/EI
Total = Q(f21) = 3375/EI
Therefore, with Q = 1 k;
Q(f21) = 3375 (k2-ft3)/EI
f21 = 3375 (k-ft3)/EI
note: f12 and f21 will always have the same result
These equations are set equal to zero since the pinned support at D does not allow translation
in the direction of the redundants.
37
solve consistent deformation equations
Using equation (1) and (2), simultaneously solve for X1 and X2:
The answers imply that the applied unit loads need to be multiplied, respectively, by the
corresponding result in order to obtain the final reactions.
The positive answers indicate that the reactions are in the same direction as the applied unit
loads.
Impose the new, correct values of XD and YD, along with the other applied loads on the
original structure. Calculate the remaining reactions using the three static equilibrium
equations, ( Fx = 0, Fy = 0 and M = 0).
All reactions are now known and are used to draw the complete shear and moment diagrams

problem statement
Using the method of consistent deformations, determine the vertical and horizontal reactions
at A and E and the resulting member loads for the truss in the accompanying figure.
40
Figure 1 - Truss structure to analyze
To solve for the single degree of indeterminacy, the structure has to be reduced to a statically
determinate and stable structure. This is done by removing a redundant support.
Calculate the support reactions of the primary structure, then determine the individual
member forces by using either the method of sections, or the method of joints.
41
Figure 3 - Support reactions and member forces
Use the virtual work method, calculate the horizontal translation of support E that
corresponds to the removed redundant XE. Remove all loads and apply a unit force in the
direction of the redundant.
Since the horizontal translation at E is equal to zero in the original structure, the horizontal
translation of the released structure at support E must be countered by a force at E which
causes an equal translation in the opposite direction.
Since the member forces are known in the released structure, and the virtual structure with a
unit load applied at E, the deflection at support E ( E0) caused by the applied loads on the
released structure is determined by the following equation.
where m is equal to the number of members, n is the force in the member due to the virtual
load, N is the force in the member due to the applied loads, L is the length, A is the area, and
E represents Young's Modulus of Elasticity.
42
The force required to counter this deflection is found by determining the deflection caused by
a unit load in the positive direction at the removed support, and multiplying this answer by
the unknown support reaction.
The consistent deformation euqation that correspondes to the redundant XE (the horizontal
reaction at support E) is:
E0 + fee*XE = 0 (1)
where E0 is the deflection at E of the primary structure, fee is the deflection of the released
structure at E caused by the unit load, and XE is the value of the unknown redundant at E.

-560 (ft2-k)/AE + 16 (ft2-k)/AE*XE = 0
XE = 35
Multiply the unit load by this value to get the final reaction. The positive answer indicates
that the reaction is in the direction of the applied unit load.
Impose the value of the calculated XE along with the other applied loads on the original truss.
Calculate the remaining reactions using the trhee static equilibrium equations, ( Fx = 0, Fy
= 0 and M = 0).
The resulting member forces are now determined by using the method of sections, or method
of joints. However, a much easier method is to use superposition and add the effects caused
by the redundant load on the released structure.
In this example, the 35 k load will cause only the top chord of the truss to experience a 35 k
tensile load in each member. This result can be added to those found in figure 3 above. The
final results,

elasticity (E) and the moment of inertia (I) are constant for the entire beam.
Note: The colors of the loads and moments are used to help indicate the contribution of
each force to the deflection or rotation being calculated. The moment diagrams show
the moments induced by a load using the same color as the load.
Calculate the support reactions (caused by the applied loads) using the following
relationships:
draw moment diagrams (M) for the structure under applied "real"
loads

Using the cantilever method, fix the structure at joint B and draw the resulting moment
diagram induced by the applied "real" loads.
Plot the moment diagram for each applied load separately, i.e., by parts. The final results can
then be obtained by utilizing the method of superposition i.e., by summing the contribution of
each individual load to the displacement being calculated. This method is applicable since the
structure is assumed to be elastic and the deflections are small.
Note: The centroid of each area is indicated by the numbered arrow and dot.
Notice that the resultant moment diagram (figure 3 above) is the sum of these four diagrams.

Apply the virtual load at the point of interest in the desired direction. In this case, we want to
know the rotation at point A. Therefore, apply a unit moment at point A in the positive
(clockwise) direction.
Following the same procedure used previously, calculate the support reactions (caused by the
virtual load) using the following relationships:
Moment diagram due to the virtual load by using the cantilever method and fixing the
structure at joint B.
Once the "real" moment diagrams are determined, calculate the area enclosed by each
moment diagram and determine the location of the centroid of each of these areas.
Location of centroid
Area No. Area/EI (ft2-k/EI)
from support (ft)
1. -56x20/EI=-1120/EI X1 = 1/2x20 = 10
2. 1/3x20x-400/EI=-2666.67/EI X2 = 3/4x20 = 15
3. 1/2x20x420/EI=4200/EI X3 = 2/3x20 = 13.33
4. 1/2x6x-36/EI=-108/EI X4 = 1/3x6 = 2
Determine the values - heights (hi) - on the virtual moment diagram (m) at the centroids of the
moments due to the real loads. This is needed to carry out the integration by using the
equation given in the introduction,

Multiply the areas of the "real" moment diagram by the heights found in the virtual moment
diagram and add them together.
Since EI is constant throughout the structure, the total rotation at A equals +173.33 ft3-
k2/EI.
The positive sign indicates that the rotation is in the same direction as the unit moment
applied at A - therefore the rotation is in the clockwise direction.

PENUTUP
3.1. Kesimpulan
Analisa struktur merupakan ilmu untuk menentukan efek dari beban pada struktur fisik
dan komponennya. Adapun cabang pemakaiannya meliputi analisis bangunan, jembatan,
perkakas, mesin, tanah, dll. Analisis struktur menggabungkan bidang mekanika teknik, teknik
material dan matematika teknik untuk menghitung deformasi struktur, kekuatan internal,
tekanan, reaksi tumpuan, percepatan, dan stabilitas. Hasil analisis tersebut digunakan untuk
memverifikasi kekuatan struktur yang akan maupun telah dibangun. Dengan demikian analisis
struktur merupakan bagian penting dari desain rekayasa struktur.
