Abstract The study of an axially‐loaded damped Timoshenko beam on a viscoelastic foundation is presented. The effects of the axial force, viscoelastic foundation and all the various damping components to a Timoshenko beam are considered in the formulation. The dynamic stiffness matrix is established and intensively discussed for applications. Free vibrations and the overall dampings are solved accordingly. Examples and discussions are also included.
