Stiffness Method - Hinge

This document discusses an equation for intermediate loading. The equation is: q = kd + q0, where q is the load, k is the spring constant, d is the displacement, and q0 is the initial load or tension in the spring before it is displaced. The equation shows that the total load on a spring under intermediate loading is equal to the load added due to displacement plus any initial load or tension already in the spring.
