Question: 2. (a) What is released structure (primary structure)? (b) A concentrated force P=200 kN moves horizontally across the beam. The horizontal reactions at the supports


2. (a) What is released structure (primary structure)? (b) A concentrated force P=200 kN moves horizontally across the beam. The horizontal reactions at the supports may be neglected. The beam has a rectangular cross section with height 20cm, width of 10cm and elastic modulus of 210GPa. The lengths L1 and L2 are 10m and 4m, respectively. Find deflection curves of beam when P is at x=4m and 8m, respectively. Draw bending moments of the beam for two loading cases. (c) Finally, determine the maximum bending stresses in the beam as a function of x for 0xL1.(50)
