Question

A timber member supported by three steel links (DE, CG and BF) to a concrete frame has to carry the loads

shown in the figure. (a) Calculate the reactions at support A. (b) Determine the axial forces in all links.

Indicate if each link is in compression or tension. (Hint : Calculate the reactions at A by the equilibrium of

the whole structure. Note that the forces at the ends of the links are along the their axes and then calculate

the axial force of link BF by the equilibrium of the concrete frame and calculate the axial forces of links DE

and CE by the equilibrium of the timber member).
