Symmetrical Structures The following structures are symmetrical, with symmetrical loading, and as a result of the symmetry one would like to analyze only one half of the structure. The same structures could have anti-symmetrical loading: In both cases the symmetry of the structure can be used and the analysis can be restricted to a half structure. Sway structures will still stay sway structures. The sway may occur in the symmetrical loading case or in the anti-symmetrical loading case. Slope deflection equations or moment-distribution may be used to obtain the bending moments. To decide how the analysis can be restricted to one half only, it is necessary to investigate the effect of symmetry and anti-symmetry on a member AB. Symmetrical Structures Page 1 2/14/02

Symmetrical Structures The following structures are symmetrical, with symmetrical loading, and as a result of the symmetry one would like to analyze only one half of the structure.

The same structures could have anti-symmetrical loading:

In both cases the symmetry of the structure can be used and the analysis can be restricted to a half structure. Sway structures will still stay sway structures. The sway may occur in the symmetrical loading case or in the anti-symmetrical loading case. Slope deflection equations or moment-distribution may be used to obtain the bending moments. To decide how the analysis can be restricted to one half only, it is necessary to investigate the effect of symmetry and anti-symmetry on a member AB.

Note that in the symmetrical case θB is equal in size to θA but has the opposite sign, whereas in the anti-symmetrical case the signs are the same. The moments on either side of the axis will have the opposite sign in the case of symmetry and the same sign in the case of anti-symmetry. This can be seen from the slope-deflection equations: Symmetry:

Loading Most loading cases can be converted into a symmetrical loading case and an anti-symmetrical case. The following are a few examples of this type of conversion.

Example 2: Determine the bending moment diagram of the following sway-structure.

Example 3: Use the symmetry of the structure and determine the bending moment diagram.

Change all the nodes to hinges. s = 4, r = 4 with s + r =8 n = 5 therefore 2 x n = 10. There are thus two independent sway mechanisms. For the symmetrical loading case the half structure will be represented by the following: s = 2, r = 3 with s + r =5 n = 3 therefore 2 x n = 6. There is thus one independent sway mechanisms.

Use the slope deflection method to solve the unknowns, θB and ψ.
