Homework Statement

In the drawing is described a beam structure fixed at point C, and held by a cable BD to the floor. The beam is loaded by two concentrated forces, F1 and F2, as described in the drawing.

Given

F1 = 700 [N]
F2 = 400 [N]

If it's known that the cable tension equals 1250 [N], calculate:

A) The reaction force at C
B) The fixation moment Mc at point C.

Ignore weight of cable and structure. Measurements are in mm.

Manual says

Cx = 80.77

 

[I like Serena]

I think your answer would fit if you subtract 50 N from F2.

Would that work for you too?

Thanks for catching it up!

How is your forehead nowawadays?

Any bruises? Noticeable brain damage?
