Hello, it has been quite some time since my statics class, and I am having a problem determining the reaction forces and moments in a rigid body. I have included a sketch of my problem, and I am hoping someone can help guide me to a solution. I apologize if the sketch is a bit crude.I have a beam that is fixed at one end. On the opposite end, there is a vertical force acting directly on the beam (F1 = 1,000 lbf), and a horizontal force acting on a bar attached to the beam (F2 = 250 lbf).
The beam is supported by a roller, and has a reaction load in the vertical directly only, located 30 inches from the end of the beam.
The beam is also supported by a rod, located 12 inches from the fixed support, and the rod is at an 18 degree angle.
I am trying to find the reaction Forces as well as the Moments to show this scenario in static equilibrium.
Thank you.
