Chapter 4 Beam Element 

 
As derived in the case of the truss element, relationship between local and global stiffness 
matrices is given as 
 
 [k

g

] = [T] [k] [T] 

 
Where, [k

g

] = Global stiffness matrix of an element 

 

[T] = Transformation matrix 

 [k] = Local stiffness matrix of the element 

 
 

Substituting the values of [T] and [k], we get the global equation of a beam element 
oriented arbitrarily at an angle 

θ

 as,

This is the equation of a beam element (without axial or torsional load, and oriented at an 
angle 

θ

 
Also, S = sin

θ

, C = cos

θ

 in the above equation. 

 
 

4.3 Beam Element with Combined Bending and Axial loads 

 
First, we will derive the stiffness matrix in local coordinates and then convert it in to 
global coordinates.  
 

4.3.1 Stiffness matrix of a beam element with bending and axial loads in  
local coordinates 

 
The stiffness equation for the combined bending and axial load can be written by 
superimposing the axial stiffness terms over the bending stiffness. 
 
For axial loading, the structural equation is, 
 
 
   f

A 3-D beam element has 6 DOF at each node, and 12 DOF for each element. The
