OpenStudy (rajat97):

i think i can help you but what is that 2N/m written in the blocks??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@rajat97 those are distributed loads. you multiply the force by the length of the distribution so you can treat it as a single force. Like the load between A and B is 2 N/m distributed over 3 m, so it's 6 N acting in the middle 1.5 m from either end. I don't see a way to do this without setting up a long series of equations

Thanks a lot @peachpi

i cant solve this stuff

OpenStudy (anonymous):

help me please

OpenStudy (rajat97):

i have the answer i don't know it is correct or wrong normal reaction at K=4.571N normal reaction at L=3N normal reaction at M=9.5715N normal reaction at N=8.1905N please let me know if any of my answers are correct if they are, i would be able to help you I used only two concepts - newton's third law and rotational equilibrium

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you show it ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@rajat97

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@rajat97 ur answer is correct , how did you get that :((( , please help me with that :((

OpenStudy (mathmate):

There is no system of equations to solve, you only have to resolve the reactions of each of the 7 beams, from top to bottom, and convert them to loads. To find the reaction of the supports, you take moments about the other support, and solve for the reaction. For example, for beam AB, length = 3 m, load = 2 N/m, so total load = 3 m * 2 N/m = 6 N. By symmetry, each support supports a load of 6/2=3 N, thus the load on support B is equivalent to 3 N. |dw:1436705214582:dw| Note that for calculation of reactions (external loads only), the uniform load can be replaced by an equivalent load equal to the total load (udl*length) applied at the middle of the uniform load. Remember that this should not be done when you are calculating the internal forces of the beam. Now to tackle beam DC, you will make a load diagram, take moments about D and C, and check that the sum of reactions equal to the total load.
