Using eqn 14.16, dividing each element by L = 3m, we have:

Since 2 is the near end & 1 is the far end, we have: (amend eqn)

Using eqn 14.16, dividing each element by L = 5m, we have:

The origin of x,y and the numbering of the joints & members are
shown.
By inspection, it is seen that the known external disp are
D3=D4=D5=D6=0
Also, the known external loads are Q1=0, Q2=-2kN.
Hence,

Using the same notation as used here, this matrix has been
developed in example 14.1.
Writing eqn 14.17, Q = KD for the truss we have
For member 2,

If a temperature decrease occurs then T
becomes negative & these forces reverse direction
