Abstract

Beam is an important member of any structure and bears heavy loads and hence before using beams one have to
be very sure about its strength and deflection. Industrial beams have different types of support, shape and structural
properties. Various types of loads are acting on it like point loads, distributed loads etc.so for each stage of design the
calculations to be done.to overcome this situation In present work Developed MATLAB code for beam having different loads
and different end conditions with different shape to calculate global stiffness matrix in MATLAB which gives result of
deflection graph and also gives natural frequency without changing the full code, to just change the parameters.
