Question
![The rig shown consists of a 1200-lb horizontal member ABC and a vertical member DBE welded together at B. The rig is
being used to raise a 3600-lb crate at a distance x = 11.7 ft from the vertical member DBE. If the tension in the cable is
3.4 kips, determine the reaction at E, assuming that the cable is anchored at F as shown in the figure.

Solution:
Create FBD for the system by yourself, take the frame as your FB and detach it from supports:
forces and reactions on frame ABCDE.
. There are
supports, in total
• Identify each force and reactions with their magnitude and directions:
1. Weight of the crate Wcrate =
