Transcribed Image Text:HW Prob 10: Solve for Reactant A and B in the following figure (see example 8):
Given: Beam at right with a uniform load and a
point load as shown.
F1 1006# @ slope 1H:2V
F3 = 1000
F2 = UL of 40#ILF for 60 ft
Note: Reaction B is pinned. Reaction A is a Roller connection

FBD of Moments around Rb
Step 1: Draw the forces (and their distance from Rb) that create a moment around Rb in the FBD above
Step 2: To Solve for RAy, sum moments about RB:
CW Moment= CCW Moment
CW Moment (+)

Step 3: Draw the forces (and their distances from Ra) that create a moment around Ra in the FBD
Step 4: To Solve for RBy, sum moments about RA:

To Check your answer, Sum Forces in Y direction = 0
IS THERE ANX FORCE AT THE PINNED CONNECTION? If yes, to the left or right?
If Yes, combine the x and y forces at the pinned connection to determine the reaction at the pinned
connection and use trigonometry to determine the direction of the reaction:
Ans: Ray = -157, Rby 2657, RBx 450, RB = 2695# @ 80 degrees
