The deflections ΔAO and fAA of the primary frame will be evaluated by using
the virtual work method. The virtual work expression for Δ AO, which
represents the horizontal deflection at joint A of the primary frame due to
external loading, can be written as :

For computing the flexibility coefficient fAA, both the real and virtual systems
consist of a unit value of the redundant AX applied to the primary frame, as
shown in Fig. (c) (without the multiplier AX). Thus, the virtual work expression
for fAA becomes:
