Slope Deflection Method

This document provides an overview of the slope-deflection method for analyzing indeterminate structures. It discusses the slope-deflection method as a displacement-based analysis technique where displacements rather than forces are the unknowns. The key steps of the slope-deflection method are outlined, including deriving the slope-deflection equations which relate unknown slopes and deflections to applied loads. Examples of applying the method to analyze beams and frames are also provided.
