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
