Step 1
In this question there are 6 sub-parts.
As per the company's policy we can only solve first 3 sub-parts.
I'm doing sub-part a, b & c.
Please repost others as a seperate question.
In a statically indeterminate structure the number of equilibrium equations are insufficient for determining the internal forces and reactions on support.
r = no. of reactions
n = no. of members
r = 3n = determinate
r > 3n = indeterminate
r < 3n = unstable
For roller/rocket support, r = 1
For hinge support, r = 2
For fixed support, r = 1
