This textbook provides a comprehensive analysis of indeterminate structures by both force and displacement methods including the basics, their usage in the analysis of beams, rigid joint and pin joint plane frames. Major coverage includes analysis of beams, rigid joint plane frames, and pin joint plane frames by various force and displacement methods followed by analysis of multi-storey frames via approximate methods, influence lines for indeterminate structures and two hinged arches. Each chapter contains introduction, methodology, necessary derivations/equations, and examples.

Features:

• Discusses advanced level of structural analysis with focus on indeterminate structures.
• Covers approximate methods for the analysis of multi-storey frames, two-hinged arches and influence lines for indeterminate beams.
• Separately discusses both flexibility and stiffness matrix methods for beams, rigid joint and pin joint plane frames.
• Explains the problems with neat coloured free body diagrams, shear force and bending moment diagrams, probable elastic curves.
• Includes review questions and answers for numerical problems, and examples.

This book is aimed at undergraduate and senior undergraduate students in structural and civil engineering.
