1 Chapter 04 Equilibrium of Rigid Bodies
2 Application Engineers designing this crane will need to determine the forces that act on this body under various conditions. 4-2
3 Introduction For a rigid body, the condition of static equilibrium means that the body under study does not translate or rotate under the given loads that act on the body The necessary and sufficient conditions for the static equilibrium of a body are that the forces sum to zero, and the moment about any point sum to zero: F 0 M r F 0 O Equilibrium analysis can be applied to two-dimensional or threedimensional bodies, but the first step in any analysis is the creation of the free body diagram 4-3
4 Free-Body Diagram The first step in the static equilibrium analysis of a rigid body is identification of all forces acting on the body with a free body diagram. Select the body to be analyzed and detach it from the ground and all other bodies and/or supports. Indicate point of application, magnitude, and direction of external forces, including the rigid body weight. Indicate point of application and assumed direction of unknown forces from reactions of the ground and/or other bodies, such as the supports. Include the dimensions, which will be needed to compute the moments of the forces. 4-4
5 Reactions at Supports and Connections for a Two-Dimensional Structure Reactions equivalent to a force with known line of action. Refer to figure 4.1 on page 163. Use this table for most two dimensional structures. 4-5
6 Reactions at Supports and Connections for a Two-Dimensional Structure Reactions equivalent to a force of unknown direction and magnitude. Reactions equivalent to a force of unknown direction and magnitude and a couple.of unknown magnitude Refer to figure 4.1 on page 163. Use this table for most two dimensional structures. 4-6
7 Practice The frame shown supports part of the roof of a small building. Your goal is to draw the free body diagram (FBD) for the frame. Sample Problem 4.4 On page 171 On the following page, you will choose the most correct FBD for this problem. 4-7
8 Practice A 150 kn B Choose the most correct FBD for the original problem. Why each choice is correct or incorrect? C B is the most correct, though C is also correct. A & D are incorrect; why? 150 kn 150 kn 150 kn D 4-8
9 Equilibrium of a Rigid Body in Two Dimensions For known forces and moments that act on a two-dimensional structure, the following are true: F 0 M M 0 M M z x Equations of equilibrium become F F 0 M 0 x y 0 y A where A can be any point in the plane of the body. The 3 equations can be solved for no more than 3 unknowns. The 3 equations cannot be augmented with additional equations, but they can be replaced F M 0 M 0 x 0 A B z O 4-9
10 Sample Problem 4.1 SOLUTION: Create a free-body diagram for the crane. Determine B by solving the equation for the sum of the moments of all forces about A. Note there will be no contribution from the unknown reactions at A. A fixed crane has a mass of 1000 kg and is used to lift a 2400 kg crate. It is held in place by a pin at A and a rocker at B. The center of gravity of the crane is located at G. Determine the components of the reactions at A and B. Determine the reactions at A by solving the equations for the sum of all horizontal force components and all vertical force components. Check the values obtained for the reactions by verifying that the sum of the moments about B of all forces is zero. 4-10
11 Sample Problem 4.1 Create the free-body diagram. Determine B by solving the equation for the sum of the moments of all forces about A. 0 : B 1.5m 9.81kN 2m M A B 107.1kN 23.5 kn 6m 0 Determine the reactions at A by solving the equations for the sum of all horizontal forces and all vertical forces. F A x x 0 : A B 0 x 107.1kN F y 0 : A 9.81kN 23.5kN A y y 33.3 kn 0 Check the values obtained. 4-11
12 Sample Problem 4.4 SOLUTION: Create a free-body diagram for the frame and cable. The frame supports part of the roof of a small building. The tension in the cable is 150 kn. Determine the reaction at the fixed end E. Apply the equilibrium equations for the reaction force components and couple at E. 4-12
13 Sample Problem 4.4 A. B. Which equation is correct? 4.5 F x 0 : Ex kn E x 150kN 0 0 F x 0: E x cos36.9 o 150kN The free-body diagram was created in an earlier exercise. Apply one of the three equilibrium equations. Try using the condition that the sum of forces in the x- direction must sum to zero. C. D. E. F x 0: E x sin 36.9 o 150kN 0 E x 90.0 kn F x 0: E x kN 0 F x 0: E x sin 36.9 o 150kN 0 What does the negative sign signify? Why the others are incorrect? 4-13
14 Sample Problem 4.4 A. B. Which equation is correct? F y 0: E y 4 20kNsin36.9 o 150kN 0 F y 0: E y 4 20kN kN 0 Now apply the condition that the sum of forces in the y-direction must sum to zero. C. D. E. F y 0: E y 4 20kNcos36.9 o 150kN 0 E y 200 kn 6 F y 0 : Ey E y 200 kn 20kN 150kN 0 F y 0: E y 4 20kN kN 0 What does the positive sign signify? Why the others are incorrect? 4-14
15 Sample Problem 4.4 Finally, apply the condition that the sum of moments about any point must equal zero. Which point is the best for applying this equilibrium condition, and why? Three good points are D, E, and F. What advantage each point has over the others, or perhaps why each is equally good? Assume that you choose point E to apply the sum-of-moments condition. Write the equation and compare your answer with a neighbor. 0 : 20kN 7.2m 20kN 5.4m M E M E 20kN 3.6m 20kN 1.8m kN m 150kN 4.5m 0 M E What is the origin of each term in the above equation? What the positive value of M E means? 4-15
16 Practice A 2100-lb tractor is used to lift 900 lb of gravel. Determine the reaction at each of the two rear wheels and two front wheels First, create a free body diagram. What steps to take to solve this problem? Second, apply the equilibrium conditions to generate the three equations, and use these to solve for the desired quantities. 4-16
17 Practice Draw the free body diagram of the tractor (on your own first). From among the choices, choose the best FBD, and discuss the problem(s) with the other FBDs. A. B. F A 2100 lb F B F A 2100 lb F B C. D. F A 2100 lb F B F A 2100 lb F B 4-17
18 Practice Now let s apply the equilibrium conditions to this FBD. Start with the moment equation: M pt 0 F A 2100 lb F B Points A or B are equally good because each results in an equation with only one unknown. What s the advantage to starting with this instead of the other conditions? About what point should we sum moments, and why? 4-18
19 Practice Assume we chose to use point B. Choose the correct equation for M B 0. F A 2100 lb F B A. + F A (60 in.)-2100lb (40 in.)-900 lb (50 in.)= 0 B. + F A (20 in.)-2100lb (40 in.)-900 lb (50 in.)= 0 C. - F A (60 in.)-2100lb (40 in.)+900 lb (50 in.)= 0 D. - F A (60 in.)+2100lb (40 in.)-900 lb (50 in.)= 0 F A =650 lb, so the reaction at each wheel is 325 lb 4-19
20 Practice Now apply the final equilibrium condition, SF y = 0. F A 2100 lb F B F A 2100 lb + F B 900 lb = 0 or +650 lb 2100 lb+ F B 900 lb = 0 F B 2350 lb, or 1175 lb at each front wheel Why was the third equilibrium condition, SF x = 0 not used? 4-20
21 What if? 2100 lb F B W=? W Now suppose we have a different problem: How much gravel can this tractor carry before it tips over? How you would solve this problem. Hint: Think about what the free body diagram would be for this situation 2100 lb F B 4-21
