Ans 1. The reactions at A and B will act normally to the respective surfaces of contact. The
forces acting are the weight, W acting downwards, NA and NB acting at 150 and 600 to the
horizontal respectively.
For static equilibrium
βˆ‘ 𝐹π‘₯= 0, 𝑖𝑒,
𝑁𝐴 cos 15 βˆ’ 𝑁𝐡 cos 60 = 0
Also
βˆ‘ 𝐹𝑦= 0, 𝑖𝑒,
𝑁𝐴 sin 15 + 𝑁𝐡 sin 60 βˆ’ π‘Š
= 0, 𝑖𝑒,
𝑁𝐴 sin 15 + 𝑁𝐡 sin 60 βˆ’ 20 × 9.81 = 0
On solving we get:
The contact forces at A, 𝐍𝐀 = 𝟏𝟎𝟏. πŸ”π
The contact forces at B, 𝐍 𝐁 = πŸπŸ—πŸ”. 𝟐𝐍

To keep the rectangular solid in position, resultant moment due to the forces must be 0 at the joints
Resultant moment about x axis at A, βˆ‘Mx = -.776 T×.3 + 125 ×9.81×0.2 = 0
β‡’ T = 1053. 48 kN

Note that BF, CG are

Ax , Ay and Dy = the reactions at the hinge and roller supports respectively
Taking moments of all the forces about A and equating to zero, we have
5 × AF + 3 × AG – Dy × AD = 0
β‡’ 5× 3cos45̊ + 3× (3+1.5cos45̊) – Dy × 6 = 0
β‡’ Dy = 3.80 kN
At joint D:
𝐡𝐹

πœƒ = π‘‘π‘Žπ‘›βˆ’1 (𝐹𝐷) = π‘‘π‘Žπ‘›βˆ’1 (6βˆ’3π‘π‘œπ‘ 45̊) = 28.7̊
Considering equilibrium of forces along x direction, βˆ‘Fx = 0
Μ‚ cosπœƒ -𝐷𝐸
Μ‚ =0
We have 𝐢𝐷
Μ‚ sinπœƒ = 0
Similarly, βˆ‘Fy = 0 β‡’ 3.80 - 𝐢𝐷
Solving the above two equations, we have
Μ‚ = +7.92 kN and 𝐷𝐸
Μ‚ = + 6.94 kN
𝐢𝐷
Μ‚ and 𝐷𝐸
Μ‚ are correct
Hence the assumed direction of 𝐢𝐷
Μ‚ = 7.92 kN , Compressive (toward the joint) & 𝐷𝐸
Μ‚ = 6.94 kN, Tensile (away from the joint)
Hence 𝐢𝐷
At joint C:
Μ‚ cos28.7̊ - 7.92 cos28.7̊ - 𝐢𝐸
Μ‚ cos45̊ = 0,
βˆ‘Fx = 0 β‡’ - Μ…Μ…Μ…Μ…
𝐡𝐢
Μ‚ sin28.7 ̊ + 7.92sin28.7 ̊ -𝐢𝐸
Μ‚ sin45 -̊ 3 = 0.
βˆ‘Fy = 0 β‡’ 𝐡𝐢
Solving the above equations, we have
Μ‚ = -5.71 kN and 𝐢𝐸
Μ‚ = -2.74 kN
𝐡𝐢
Μ‚ and 𝐢𝐸
Μ‚ are incorrect.
Hence the assumed directions of 𝐡𝐢
Μ‚ = 5.71 kN, Compressive and 𝐢𝐸
Μ‚ = 2.74 kN, Compressive
Hence 𝐡𝐢
At joint E:
Ξ²=

67.5 ̊ (from isosceles triangle ABE)
Μ‚ sinΞ² - 2.74sin45 ̊ = 0
βˆ‘Fy = 0 β‡’ 𝐡𝐸
Μ‚ = + 2.10 kN
β‡’ 𝐡𝐸
Μ‚ is correct.
Hence assumed direction of 𝐡𝐸
Μ‚ = 2.10 kN, Tensile.
Hence 𝐡𝐸

Ans 4.
Section cut is drawn through members DE, EL, and LK for the release of forces
Μ‚ × 2- 8×6 = 0,
At joint L, resultant moment, βˆ‘M = 0 β‡’ 𝐷𝐸
Μ‚ = +24 kN, the assumed direction of 𝐷𝐸
Μ‚ is correct
Hence 𝐷𝐸
At joint D,
Μ‚ cos45 ̊ + 24 = 0
Considering equilibrium of forces along horizontal direction, -𝐷𝐿
Μ‚ = + 33.94 kN, ∴ The assumed direction of 𝐷𝐿
Μ‚ is correct.
Hence 𝐷𝐿
Μ‚ = 24 kN, Tensile and 𝐷𝐿
Μ‚ = 33.94 kN, Compressive.
Hence 𝐷𝐸
Ans 5.
Conditions for zero force in members are:
1. In a joint with two non-collinear members, if there is no external force then members
have zero force.
2. In a joint with three members if two members are collinear and there is no external force,
then the non-collinear member is a zero-force member.
In the given problem we find that the Joint K has 2 collinear members KL and IK and there is no
external force, hence JK is a zero force member by property2
Now at joint J, HJ and JL are collinear, and JK is zero force, hence it can be neglected. Therefore
by condition 2, IJ is a zero force member.
Now at joint I, GI and IK are collinear, and IJ is zero force, hence it can be neglected. Therefore
by condition 2, HI is a zero force member.
At the joint C, CA and CE are collinear and there is no external force, hence by property 2, BC is
a zero force member.
