Question

PROBLEM 1: The homogeneous structure shown weighs 21.45 kN per square meter of cross-section. The structure is subject to horizontal uniformly distributed load P1 and triangularly distributed load P2 perpendicular to side AB.

Given:

H1 = 9 m; H2 = 6 m; H3 = 12 m

X1 = 6 m; X2 = 5 m

P1 = 220 kN/m; P2 = 280 kN/m

Required	Answer
Equivalent force of uniform load P1	1980.00
Total weight of the structure, W	3603.60
Horizontal component of the resultant, Rx	300.00
