Civil Engineering homework question answer, step 1, image 1

sum for blank of M subscript C equals 0
H subscript D cross times 15 equals 0
H subscript D equals 0
sum for blank of M subscript B equals 0 space
6 cross times 8 plus 6 cross times 16 plus 3 cross times 24 minus V subscript D cross times 24 equals 0
V subscript D equals 9 space k space open parentheses upwards arrow close parentheses space
sum for blank of V equals 0
V subscript A plus V subscript D equals 3 plus 6 plus 6 plus 3 space
V subscript A plus 9 equals 3 plus 6 plus 6 plus 3

V subscript A equals 9 space k space open parentheses upwards arrow close parentheses
sum for blank of H equals 0
0.8 cross times 15 minus H subscript A minus H subscript D equals 0
12 minus H subscript A minus 0 equals 0
H subscript A equals 12 space k space open parentheses leftwards arrow close parentheses
sum for blank of M subscript D equals 0 space
V subscript A cross times 24 minus M subscript A plus 0.8 cross times 15 cross times 7.5 minus 3 cross times 24 minus 6 cross times 16 minus 6 cross times 8 equals 0
space 9 cross times 24 minus M subscript A plus 0.8 cross times 15 cross times 7.5 minus 3 cross times 24 minus 6 cross times 16 minus 6 cross times 8 equals 0
M subscript A equals 90 space k. f t space open parentheses ↺ close parentheses
