Introduction
Support Reactions.
The surface forces that develop at the
supports or points of contact between
bodies are called reactions. For two-
dimensional problems, i.e., bodies subjected
to coplanar force systems, the supports
most commonly encountered are shown in

As a general rule, if support prevents
translation in a given direction, a force must
be developed on the member in that
direction. Likewise, if rotation is prevented, a
couple moment must be exerted on the
member. For example, roller support only
prevents translation normal to the surface.
Hence, the roller exerts a normal force on
the member at its point of contact. Since
member can freely rotate about roller, a
couple moment can not be developed on the

Equations of Equilibrium.
Equilibrium of a body requires both a
balance of forces, to prevent the body from
translating or having accelerated motion
along a straight or curved path, and a
balance of moments, to prevent the body
from rotating. These conditions can be
expressed mathematically by two vector
equations

Mechanics
Here, ∑F represents the sum of all the
forces acting on the body, and ∑M o is the
sum of the moments of all the forces about
any point O either on or off the body. If an x,
y, z coordinate system is established with
the origin at point O, the force and moment
vectors can be resolved into components
along each coordinate axis and the above
two equations can be written in scalar form
as six equations, namely,

a) free-body diagram of a
segment of the bar,
Example:
• If two bars of same
length and different
cross-sectional areas are
subjected to different
loading, load carrying
capacity of a bar cannot
be justified by the
amount of load being
carried by any bar.
STRESS
• If we see the dispersion of load on respective
cross-sections we will find a common factor
of comparison for which bar is stronger than
the other. This common factor is Stress
denoted by σ.
Therefore,
w = 180 N/m

The magnitude of the resultant of the
distributed load is equal to the area under the
loading curve (triangle) and acts through the
centroid of this area.
