Transcribed Image Text:Consider the beam shown in (Figure 1). Suppose that P₁ = 20 k and P₂ = 22 k Figure 5 tt 1 k/ft P₁ 1 of 1 L.
Expert Solution
Step 1 Introduction and given data

An inclined beam simply supported A and B, acted upon by uniformly varying load, 1k/ft at A and 3k/ft at B.

and point loads P1 = 20k and P2 = 22 k as shown.

Now, 

Degree of static indeterminacy, Ds = Total number of unknown support reactions -total number of known equilibrium equations.

Ds = 3-3 = 0

Thus, we can determine support reactions, using equilibrium equations only.

To determine,

  1. Reactions at A and B normal to the beam AB
  2. X components of reaction at B
  3. Y components of reaction at B
