Fixed base, distributed load on the beam
Input
Column height
Span length
Second moment of area of the column
Second moment of area of the beam
Distributed load
Result
Stiffness of the column
Stiffness of the beam
Stiffness ratio
Vertical reaction
Horizontal reaction
Bending moment
Bending moment at column top
Bending moment at beam midspan
Notes
- Reactions for a portal frame with fixed bases and a uniformly distributed load on the beam.
- The bending moment M is the value at the column base and MB the value at the column top. It varies linearly along the column, so M + MB = Hh.
