Indeterminate Structure
Why we study indeterminate structure
– Most of the structures designed today are statically
indeterminate
– Reinforced concrete buildings are considered in most cases as
a statically indeterminate structures since the columns &
beams are poured as continuous member through the joints
& over the supports
– More stable compare to determinate structure or in another
word safer.
– In many cases more economical than determinate.
