1.0 INTRODUCTION
Developing a coding scheme for computing the reaction force and internal shear force is the
aim of our study. If we compute and identify the value of the reaction force, carry over factor,
distribution factor, stiffness factor, fixed end moments, and distribution moment manually, it
will take some time to arrive at the final result. So, our team made the decision to create a
specific calculator from the code in order to determine the response force and internal shear
force. This calculator will produce correct results fast and easily because it will be speedier
than the manual calculation method. Other than that, by using this program any error in the
calculation will be reduced and also error in coding is easily to be detected.
