Determine the reactions on the beam


Determine the reactions on the beam shown






+ΣFx = 0
Ax - 270cos60° = 0
Ax = 135 KN


+ΣMA = 0
270sin60° (3) - 270cos60° (0.3) + 6.8 - By(4.2) = 0
By = 159 KN


+ΣMB = 0
Ay(4.2) - 270sin60° (1.2) - 270cos60° (0.3) + 6.8 = 0
Ay = 74.8 KN

or

 +ΣFy = 0
Ay - 270sin60° + 159 = 0
Ay = 74.8 KN


Ans.
Ax = 135 KN
By = 159 KN
Ay = 74.8 KN

Structural Analysis by Aslam Kassimali




Structural Analysis teaches students the basic principles of structural analysis using the classical approach. The chapters are presented in a logical order, moving from an introduction of the topic to an analysis of statically determinate beams, trusses and rigid frames, to the analysis of statistically indeterminate structures. The text includes solved problems to help illustrate the fundamental concepts.

Structural Analysis, Russell C. Hibbeler 8Ed



Structural Analysis 8e, provides readers with a clear and thorough presentation of the theory and application of structural analysis as it applies to trusses, beams, and frames. Emphasis is placed on teaching readers to both model and analyze a structure. Procedures for Analysis, Hibbeler's problem solving methodologies, provides readers with a logical, orderly method to follow when applying theory.
