Question: Determine the structure stiffness matrix (mathbf{k}) for each member of the two-member frame. Take (E=200 mathrm{GPa}, I=350left(10^{6} ight) mathrm{mm}^{4}), (A=20left(10^{3} ight) mathrm{mm}^{2}) for each member.

Determine the structure stiffness matrix \(\mathbf{k}\) for each member of the two-member frame. Take \(E=200 \mathrm{GPa}, I=350\left(10^{6}\right) \mathrm{mm}^{4}\), \(A=20\left(10^{3}\right) \mathrm{mm}^{2}\) for each member. Supports (1) and (3) are pinned and joint (2) is fixed connected.
