Abstract:
An approximate method is developed for computing the fixed-end moments, carry-over factors, stiffness and ridgidity of members of variable sections. The method differs from the usual approach only in that it uses a tabular form for adding increments of the various functions instead of integrating the functions directly. Values of Sl and Sr for various loadings are tabulated.
