Question

Differentiate between Absolute Shiffress
and Relative Stiffness?
​

Answer 1

Relative stiffness is the ratio of stiffness to two or more members at a joint. Absolute stiffness is represented in terms of E, I and L, such as 4EI / L. Relative stiffness is represented in terms of I and L, omitting the constant E. Relative stiffness is the ratio of stiffness to two or more members at a joint.
