1. Sketch a cable structure supported by a frictionless roller which is located on top of towers A and B. Determine () maximum tensile forces in the cable for the uniformly distributed load w = 11.8 EN/m, hị = 3 m, d = 2 m and span length of L = 31.8 m, and (ii) vertical reaction forces exerted by towers at A and B. Assume that the position of support A is in higher than B and the angles of anchor cable from the horizontal line of support A and B are O = 26.8 and Og = 36.8 degree.
