Statically Indeterminate Beams: Mechanics of Materials - 2

This document discusses statically indeterminate beams. It begins by defining what makes a beam statically indeterminate and how the degree of indeterminacy is calculated. For a beam with a fixed support at one end and roller support at the other, the beam is statically indeterminate to the first degree, meaning there is one more reaction than equations. The document then works through an example problem, determining the reaction at the fixed support, deriving the equation for the elastic curve of the beam, and calculating the slope at the fixed support using the method of superposition.

SUPPORT TYPES
The three common types of connections which join a built structure to its
foundation are; roller, pinned and fixed. A fourth type, not often found in building
structures, is known as a simple support. This is often idealized as a frictionless
surface). All of these supports can be located anywhere along a structural element.
• when a beam is statically indeterminate, the
equilibrium equations are not sufficient and additional
equations are needed.

• The number of reactions in excess of the number of


equilibrium equations is called the degree of static
indeterminacy.

• The excess reactions are called static redundants and


must be selected in each particular case
Statically Indeterminate Beams 1st degree
• Consider beam with fixed support at A and roller
support at B.
• From free-body diagram, note that there are four
unknown reaction components.
• Conditions for static equilibrium yield
 Fx  0  Fy  0  M A  0

The beam is statically indeterminate.


• Also have the beam deflection equation,

which introduces two unknowns but provides
three additional equations from the boundary
conditions:
At x  0,   0 y  0 At x  L, y  0

In previous example we have just considered,
there was one redundant reaction, i.e., there
was one more reaction than could be
determined from the equilibrium equations
alone. The corresponding beam is said to be
statically indeterminate to the first degree
Sample Problem 9.3
SOLUTION:
• Develop the differential equation for
the elastic curve (will be functionally
dependent on the reaction at A).

• Integrate twice and apply boundary


conditions to solve for reaction at A
