    Determining the support reactions of a frame

    I completely missed that. Thank you. After taking the moments for each side is it as simple as solving Cx in terms of Cy or vice versa and finishing it up?

    Determining the support reactions of a frame

    Here is a link to the problem: http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/374/frameow.jpg" I am trying to find the support reactions at A and B. I separated the frame at the hinge(call it C) into two parts and took the moment equation about point A. This gave me: \SigmaMa = -60(25) - 62.5(12.5) +...
