Formulation ofDirect Force Method

Abstract

In this paper basis of direct force method is developed and presented in a concise and step by step way. Though direct force method has no edge over direct stiffness method, yet it is of a great academic interest for the scholars working on matrix methods of analysis. There can be three ways of selection of redundants to analyze the indeterminate structures by force method. A structure may have all the external redundants or it may have all the internal redundants. Still there is third probability that it may have mixed redundants i.e., external as well as internal redundants. These three cases require separate formulations. This paper presents all the three formulations.
