This test problem demonstrates the end-offset offsets and insertion -point features of SAP2000. Please refer to the screenshots below[SAP2000|sap2000:home], and attachedtheir hand calculations for additional information.

The visuals which follow illustrate the modeling and performance of two systems, one which follows default settings by transforming stiffness to account for insertion-point offset, as compared to one which does not transform stiffness.
