NEED FOR SUPPORT • THE LOAD CARRYING STRUCTURES NEED SUPPORTS TO AVOID -DEFORMATION -BENDING -INSTABILITY
Types of loads • Several types of loads can act on beams, such as concentrated loads, distributed loads, varying loads and couples. • Concentrated loads are idealized from loads applied on a very small area. Magnitudes are known . • Distributed loads are spread along the axes of beams. For example, the weight of the beam can be assumed as a distributed force. • Distributed loads are converted into equivalent forces to make the solution process easier. For vertical loads, the equivalent force is through the centroid of the distributed load. Thus, if the distributed load is a basic shape, the centroid is easy to determine without integration. • Couples are moments applied on the beam. Do not contribute to force . • Uniform varying Load In this case the load varies uniformly along the length (gradual increase, gradual decrease)

Calculate the support reactions • Solution: First change UDL in to point load.Resolved all the forces in horizontal and vertical direction. Since roller at B (only one vertical reaction) and hinged at point B (one vertical and one horizontal reaction).Let reaction at hinged i.e., point B is RBH and RBV, and reaction at roller support i.e. point D is RDV Let ΣH & ΣV is the sum of horizontal and vertical component of the forces ,The supported beam is in equilibrium, hence ΣH = ΣV = 0 RH = RBH = 0 RBH = 0 ...(i) ΣV = RBV –50 –5 – RDV = 0 RBV + RDV = 55 ...(ii)Taking moment about point B50 × 0.5 – RBV × 0 – RDV × 5 + 5 × 7 = 0RDV =12 KN .......ANSPutting the value of RBV in equation (ii)RBV = 43KN .......ANSHence RBH = 0, RDV = 12KN, RBV = 43KN
NUMERICAL • A 9m long beam ABCD is supported on a hinge at ‘A’ and a roller support at an angle of 45o at ‘D’. The beam has a clockwise moment of 9 kNm at ‘B’ and a point load of 6 kN at ’C’. If the points are equidistant, find the support reactions.
