PROBLEM SET 1
For each of the structures shown below, compute the reactions and draw the axial force (N),
shear force (V), and bending moment (M) diagrams. Show the values of the critical points on the
internal force diagrams. Sketch the displaced shape for each problem.
Problem 2: A and D are rollers; B and C are bolts in oversize holes and can transfer vertical
loads only.
Problem 3: A, E, and F are pins; B is a rigid connection (i.e., can transmit moment).
Problem 4: A and D are pins; the wind loads are force per unit length on the vertical projection of
the members.
