Keywords: non-homogeneous monoclinic beam, Neumann problem, biharmonic problem, auxiliary problems of plane deformation

The paper presents a derivation for the analysis of monoclinic beams of non-homogeneous cross-section that undergo axially distributed surface loads and body forces. The derivation has been proved to be exact by symbolic computational tools, and includes illustrative numerical examples.
