Question
**Problem Statement:**
Determine the horizontal component of reaction at the pin A to support the steel frame if force F = 60 kN. Supply the answer in kN.

**Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram illustrates a steel frame supported by a pin at point A and a cable extending from point B to point C. The frame consists of a vertical member (AC) and a horizontal member (AB).

- **Horizontal Member (AB):** 
  - Length divided into three segments of 1 m each.
  - There is a downward vertical force F = 60 kN applied at the center segment of the horizontal member.

- **Vertical Member (AC):**
  - The length of this member is 3 m.

- **Cable (BC):**
  - The cable creates a right triangle with sides proportional to a 3-4-5 triangle.
  - The vertical side of the triangle (opposite) is 3 m, corresponding to the length of AC.

- **Moment indication:** 
  - A counterclockwise moment of 30 kN•m is depicted around point A.

The task requires calculating the horizontal reaction at the pin A due to the applied load and constraints of the structure.
