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,
- Reactions at A and B normal to the beam AB
- X components of reaction at B
- Y components of reaction at B
