2 5.1 Conditions for Rigid-Bod Equilibrium The equilibrium of a bod is epressed as F R M R O F 0 M O 0 Consider summing moments about some other point, such as point A, we require MA r FR MR O 0 44

3 5. Free Bod Diagrams Support Reactions If a support prevents the translation of a bod in a given direction, then a force is developed on the bod in that direction. If rotation is prevented, a couple moment is eerted on the bod. 45

4 5. Free Bod Diagrams 46

5 5. Free Bod Diagrams 47

6 5. Free Bod Diagram Weight and Center of Gravit Each particle has a specified weight Sstem can be represented b a single resultant force, known as weight W of the bod Location of the force application is known as the center of gravit 48

7 Eample 5.1 Draw the free-bod diagram of the uniform beam. The beam has a mass of 100kg. Solution Free-Bod Diagram Support at A is a fied wall Two forces acting on the beam at A denoted as A, A, with moment M A Unknown magnitudes of these vectors For uniform beam, Weight, W = 100(9.81) = 981N acting through beam s center of gravit, 3m from A 49

8 5.4 Two- and Three-Force Members Two-Force Members When forces are applied at onl two points on a member, the member is called a two-force member Onl force magnitude must be determined Three-Force Members When subjected to three forces, the forces are concurrent or parallel 50

10 5.5 Free-Bod Diagrams 5

11 5.7 Constraints for a Rigid Bod Redundant Constraints More support than needed for equilibrium Staticall indeterminate: more unknown loadings than equations of equilibrium 53

12 5.7 Constraints for a Rigid Bod Improper Constraints Instabilit caused b the improper constraining b the supports When all reactive forces are concurrent at this point, the bod is improperl constrained 54

13 Chapter 6 Structural Analsis Objectives Determine the forces in the members of a truss using the method of joints and the method of sections Analze forces acting on the members of frames and machines composed of pin-connected members Outline Simple Trusses The Method of Joints Zero-Force Members The Method of Sections Space Trusses Frames and Machines 55

14 6.1 Simple Truss A truss composed of slender members joined together at their end points Planar Trusses The analsis of the forces developed in the truss members is D Similar to roof truss, the bridge truss loading is also coplanar Assumptions for Design All loadings are applied at the joint - Weight of the members neglected The members are joined together b smooth pins - Assume connections provided the center lines of the joining members are concurrent 56

15 6.1 Simple Truss Simple Truss Form of a truss must be rigid to prevent collapse The simplest form that is rigid or stable is a triangle Method of Joints For truss, we need to know the force in each members Forces in the members are internal forces For eternal force members, equations of equilibrium can be applied Force sstem acting at each joint is coplanar and concurrent F = 0 and F = 0 must be satisfied for equilibrium 57

16 Eample 6.1 Determine the force in each member of the truss and indicate whether the members are in tension or compression. Solution unknown member forces at joint B 1 unknown reaction force at joint C unknown member forces and unknown reaction forces at point A For Joint B, F 0; 500N F F BC F cos 45 BC sin 45 0; N F BA N 0 F 0 F BA BC 707.1N ( C) 500N( T ) 58

18 6.3 Zero-Force Members Method of joints is simplified using zero-force members Zero-force members is supports with no loading In general, when 3 members form a truss joint, the 3 rd member is a zero-force member provided no eternal force or support reaction is applied to the joint 60

19 Eample 6.4 Using the method of joints, determine all the zero-force members of the roof truss. Assume all joints are pin connected. Solution For Joint G, F 0 F 0 GC GC is a zero-force member. For Joint D, F 0 F 0 DF 61

21 6.4 Method of Sections Used to determine the loadings within a bod If a bod is in equilibrium, an part of the bod is in equilibrium To find forces within members, an imaginar section is used to cut each member into and epose each internal force as eternal Consider the truss and section a-a as shown Member forces are equal and opposite to those acting on the other part Newton s Law 63
