Homework Equations
FAB = FBC etc...
The Attempt at a Solution
FAB = FBC + 300kN = FCD = FDE + 600kN
Sorry for another post. I'm really not sure where to go with this one...
Not necessarily.Matthew Heywood said:So ∂ = 4.5mm = FAB(150mm)/125mm2EAB + (FBC + 300)(150mm)/125mm2EBC + FCD(150mm)/200mm2ECD + (FDE + 600)(150mm)/200mm2EDE ?
Matthew Heywood said:Ah okay. So you'd use ∂ = 0, FAB = FBC + 300kN = FCD = FDE + 600kN
and E = 200GPa as it is steel?
A statically indeterminate axially loaded problem is a type of structural analysis problem where the number of unknown forces or reactions is more than the number of available equations. In other words, the problem cannot be solved by using only the equations of equilibrium.
This type of problem occurs when a structure is designed with redundant members or supports, meaning there are more members or supports than are necessary for the structure to be stable. This can also happen when there are internal hinges or discontinuities in the structure.
There are several methods for solving this type of problem, including the force method, displacement method, and slope-deflection method. These methods involve using additional equations or assumptions to determine the unknown forces or reactions.
One of the main challenges is that the additional equations or assumptions used to solve the problem may introduce errors or inaccuracies. Additionally, the solution may be more complex and time-consuming compared to a statically determinate problem.
This type of problem is commonly encountered in the design and analysis of bridges, buildings, and other structures. It is important to consider the potential for redundancy in these structures to ensure their stability and safety.
