In this paper, the finite element analysis for static displacements of some complicated Euler-Bernoulli beam structure is considered in fuzzy environment, where the material and geometric properties are taken as crisp. The numerical examples deals with cantilever beam, a beam clamped at one end and supported by a linear elastic spring. Various loads such as constant distributed,linearly varying, and point loads are considered for the examples. Assembled system of the above structures converts into fuzzy system of linear equations by taking right hand side global force vector as fuzzy keeping coefficient matrix as crisp.The results obtained are represented in terms of plots.
