How to arrange local stiffness matrix to global stiffness matrix

I have 3 local stiffness matrix 4 by 4;
local stiffness matrix-1 (4x4) = row and column address for global stiffness are 1 2 3 4 and 1 2 3 4 resp.;
local stiffness matrix-2 (4x4) = row and column address for global stiffness are 1 2 5 6 and 1 2 5 6 resp.;
local stiffness matrix-3 (4x4) = row and column address for global stiffness are 1 2 7 8 and 1 2 7 8 resp.;
I want these local stiffness matrices to be arranged in global stiffness matrix of (8x8) size according to above local stiffness address with overlapping cells added.

I strongly suspect there is something wrong with your scheme in the image attached. The stiffness matrix #2 (marked in red), for instance, has 4x4=16 elements, but you've marked only 8 of them in the global matrix. If I understand correctly the problem you are facing (2D beam stiffness matrices?) then perhaps this should help:
mat_stiff_global=zeros(8, 8);
mat_stiff_global(1:4, 1:4)=mat_stiff_global(1:4, 1:4)+mat_stiff_local1;
mat_stiff_global([1:2, 5:6], [1:2, 5:6])=mat_stiff_global([1:2, 5:6], [1:2, 5:6])+mat_stiff_local2;
mat_stiff_global([1:2, 7:8], [1:2, 7:8])=mat_stiff_global([1:2, 7:8], [1:2, 7:8])+mat_stiff_local3;

Thank you so much for answering this guys question. I am currently in advanced machine analysis and I didn't want to have to type out each matrix, or variables to actually form the matrix.
