 This branch is used to define a **Timoshenko beam property**. It is compatible with the LN2 element shape only. This property is used to model slender structures subjected to an arbitrary loading (force and moment). **The Timoshenko beam element enables shear deformation**. This element is considered accurate for cross-section typical dimension less than $\cfrac{1}{8}$ of the beam length. This branch is used to define a **Timoshenko beam property**.
