The document provides an overview of the slope deflection method used in structural analysis of portal frames, detailing its assumptions, procedure, and sign conventions. It outlines steps to determine fixed end moments, joint rotations, and calculate support moments, including an example with a frame and the corresponding bending moment diagram. Key points include that joints are rigid and that the procedure involves establishing simultaneous equations for unknown rotations based on applied loads.
