Can I assemble one matrix from many individual matrices?

Is it possible to assembly a global matrix from many individual local matrices?  Such as is done in stiffness matrix of a structural system?

 

For example, if k.1 yields a 2x2 matrix with positions in regards to the global matrix 11,12,21,22.  And k.2 yields a 2x2 matrix with position 22,23,32,33 again in regards to a global position.  Can MathCAD assemble the matrix with correct positioning without building k.1 and k.2 as a 3x3 and then simply adding together k.1 and k.2?  Its simple enough when the global is a 3x3 assemble from a 2x2, but is much more strenuous when assembling a 10x10 matrix from (5) 3x3 matrices.
