Question: For the next beam, solve subsection a , b , c , d and e . Give the numerical results as a function of El

For the next beam, solve subsection a,b,c,d and e. Give the numerical results as a
function of El (constant flexural rigidity), in the subsection e, graph the shear and
bending moment diagram, that is, draw the diagrams. To solve this problem, use
the method of minimum work, that is, the Castigliano method.
7.32. A propped cantilever beam with an overhang is subjected to a concentrated
load P, as illustrated in Fig. P7.32. The beam has a constant flexural rigidity El.
Determine (a) the stiffness matrix for each element; (b) the system stiffness matrix;
(c) the nodal displacements; (d) the forces and moments at the ends of each
member; (e) the shear and moment diagrams.
L=4 meters
P=11.5kNm
