acceptable guide to its understanding This page intentionally left blank PREFACE This book is intended to provide the student with a clear and thorough presentation of the theory and application of structural analysis as it applies to trusses, beams, and frames Emphasis is placed on developing the student’s ability to both model and analyze a structure and to provide realistic applications encountered in professional practice For many years now, engineers have been using matrix methods to analyze structures Although these methods are most efficient for a structural analysis, it is the author’s opinion that students taking a first course in this subject should also be well versed in some of the more important classicial methods Practice in applying these methods will develop a deeper understanding of the basic engineering sciences of statics and mechanics of materials Also, problem-solving skills are further developed when the various techniques are thought out and applied in a clear and orderly way By solving problems in this way one can better grasp the way loads are transmitted through a structure and obtain a more complete understanding of the way the structure deforms under load Finally, the classicial methods provide a means of checking computer results rather than simply relying on the generated output New to This Edition • Fundamental Problems These problem sets are selectively located just after the example problems They offer students simple applications of the concepts and, therefore, provide them with the chance to develop their problem-solving skills before attempting to solve any of the standard problems that follow You may consider these problems as extended examples since they all have solutions and answers that are given in the back of the book Additionally, the fundamental problems offer students an excellent means of studying for exams, and they can be used at a later time to prepare for the exam necessary to obtain a professional engineering license • Content Revision Each section of the text was carefully reviewed to enhance clarity This has included incorporating the new ASCE/ SEI 07-10 standards on loading in Chapter 1, an improved explanation of how to draw shear and moment diagrams and the deflection curve of a structure, consolidating the material on structures having a variable moment of inertia, providing further discussion for analyzing structures having internal hinges using matrix analysis, and adding a new Appendix B that discusses some of the common features used for running current structural analysis computer software 248 CHAPTER INFLUENCE LINES S TAT I C A L LY D E T E R M I N AT E S T R U C T U R E S FOR EXAMPLE 6.19 Determine the maximum positive moment created at point B in

moment is 1.20 1.20 1.20 b132 - 8a b132 + 4a b122 3 = - 8.40 kN # m ¢MB = - 3a Notice here that the 4-kN load was initially m off the beam, and therefore moves only m on the beam Since there is a sign change in ¢MB, the correct position of the loads for maximum positive moment at B occurs when the 8-kN force is at B, Fig 6–31b Therefore, 1MB2max = 811.202 + 310.42 = 10.8 kN # m Ans 6.6 249 MAXIMUM

at Point C By inspection this would seem a more reasonable case than the previous one -0.625 b14 m2 + kN10.31252 6m = - 2.50 kN 2-kN Load at Point C In this case all loads will create a compressive force in BC FBG = kN1- 0.6252 + kN a = - 2.66 kN x (b) In this case FBG = kN1 - 0.6252 + 1.5 kNa 12 influence line for FBG SOLUTION The influence line for the force in member BG is shown in Fig 6–32b Here a trial-and-error approach for the solution will be used Since we want the greatest negative (compressive) force in BG, we begin as follows: FBG = 1.5 kN1-0.6252 + 4102 + kN a Ϫ0.625 Fig 6–32 1.5-kN Load at Point C E (a) -0.625 -0.625 b13 m2 + 1.5 kNa b11 m2 6m 6m Ans Since this final case results in the largest answer, the critical loading occurs when the 2-kN load is at C 250 CHAPTER INFLUENCE LINES FOR S TAT I C A L LY D E T E R M I N AT E S T R U C T U R E S 6.7 Absolute Maximum Shear and Moment In Sec 6–6 we developed the methods for computing the maximum shear and moment at a specified point in a beam due to a series of concentrated moving loads A more general problem involves the determination of both the location of the point in the beam and the position of the loading on the beam so that one can obtain the absolute maximum shear and moment caused by the loads If the beam is cantilevered or simply supported, this problem can be readily solved Shear For a cantilevered beam the absolute maximum shear will Vabs occur at a point located just next to the fixed support The maximum shear is found by the method of sections, with the loads positioned anywhere on the span, Fig 6–33 For simply supported beams the absolute maximum shear will occur just next to one of the supports For example, if the loads are equivalent, they are positioned so that the first one in sequence is placed close to the support, as in Fig 6–34 max Fig 6–33 Moment The absolute maximum moment for a cantilevered beam occurs at the same point where absolute maximum shear occurs, although in this case the concentrated loads should be positioned at the far end of the beam, as in Fig 6–35 For a simply supported beam the critical position of the loads and the associated absolute maximum moment cannot, in general, be determined by inspection We can, however, determine the position analytically For purposes of discussion, consider a beam subjected to the forces F1, F2, F3 shown in Fig 6–36a Since the moment diagram for a series of concentrated forces consists of straight line segments having peaks at each force, the absolute maximum moment will occur under one of the forces Assume this maximum moment occurs under F2 The position of the loads F1, F2, F3 on the beam will be specified by the distance x, measured from F2 to the beam’s centerline as shown To determine a specific value of x, we first obtain the resultant force of the system, FR, and its distance Vabs max Fig 6–34 Mabs max Fig 6–35 FR F1 F2 _ F3 (x¿Ϫx) x F1 d1 A _ x¿ d1 L — M2 B L Ϫ x) (— d2 L — Ay V2 Ay By (a) Fig 6–36 (b) 6.7 ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM SHEAR AND MOMENT 251 x¿ measured from F2 Once this is done, moments are summed about B, which yields the beam’s left reaction, Ay, that is, ©MB = 0; Ay = L 1FR2c - 1x¿ - x2 d L If the beam is sectioned just to the left of F2, the resulting free-body diagram is shown in Fig 6–36b The moment M2 under F2 is therefore ©M = 0; M2 = Ay a L - x b - F1 d1 = L L 1F 2c - 1x¿ - x2 d a - xb - F1 d1 L R 2 = FR L FRx¿ FRx2 FR xx¿ + - F1 d1 L L The absolute maximum moment in this girder bridge is the result of the moving concentrated loads caused by the wheels of these train cars The cars must be in the critical position, and the location of the point in the girder where the absolute maximum moment occurs must be identified For maximum M2 we require -2FRx FRx¿ dM2 = + = dx L L or x = x¿ Hence, we may conclude that the absolute maximum moment in a simply supported beam occurs under one of the concentrated forces, such that this force is positioned on the beam so that it and the resultant force of the system are equidistant from the beam’s centerline Since there are a series of loads on the span (for example, F1, F2, F3 in Fig 6–36a), this principle will have to be applied to each load in the series and the corresponding maximum moment computed By comparison, the largest moment is the absolute maximum As a general rule, though, the absolute maximum moment often occurs under the largest force lying nearest the resultant force of the system Envelope of Maximum Influence-Line Values Rules or formulations for determining the absolute maximum shear or moment are difficult to establish for beams supported in ways other than the cantilever or simple support discussed here An elementary way to proceed to solve this problem, however, requires constructing influence lines for the shear or moment at selected points along the entire length of the beam and then computing the maximum shear or moment in the beam for each point using the methods of Sec 6–6 These values when plotted yield an “envelope of maximums,” from which both the absolute maximum value of shear or moment and its location can be found Obviously, a computer solution for this problem is desirable for complicated situations, since the work can be rather tedious if carried out by hand calculations 252 CHAPTER INFLUENCE LINES FOR S TAT I C A L LY D E T E R M I N AT E S T

occur under the 2-k load, since k 1.5 k and FR is between both k and 1.5 k To investigate this case, the 2-k load and FR are positioned equidistant from the beam’s centerline, Fig 6–37d Show that Ay =
