A column AB is anchored to the ground by a pin-joint at A, and is held in a vertical position by various loads as shown. Determine:
(i) Magnitude of force f1
(ii) Magnitude and direction of the reaction at A
I know how to calculate F1 if it was on a horizontal or vertical. But I'm not sure How to calculate it with the 5kN force offset by 0.5 m horizontally. We haven't been taught how to calculate with anything like this yet.
