Determine the elongation of the frame between the points
where the two loads are applied
For simplicity consider one quarter of the frame

there is no shear stress at the cut
because of symmetry and no normal
force, N,

We don't know the value of the internal moment M0, so this problem is
statically indeterminant. From the Principle of Least Work
δU =

δ M0 = 0
∂M 0
for arbitrary δ M 0
U=
Here, we keep only the strain energy due to bending

Thus, we obtain

Placing in the expressions for F and M0 in terms of P
Pb3 ( 4a + b )
∆F =
24 EI ( a + b )
We need to double this result since this is only the elongation of one
side, giving
Pb3 ( 4a + b )
∆ P = 2∆ F =
12 EI ( a + b )
