Question: ( Problem 1 , Continuod ) a . Using Reduced Structure 1 , determine the deflection at B ( B ) due to the 4

(Problem 1, Continuod)
a. Using Reduced Structure 1, determine the deflection at B (B) due to the 4
kip applied load.
Notes:
(1) the given deflection equation assumes posisve defections is up
b. Using Reduced Structure 2, determine the flexibility coefficient fen.
Notes:
(1) fee = deflection at B due to a unit load eppled at B
(2) The unit load is applied down to malch the given deflection equation
c. In the real structure the deflection at B is zero. Use the compatibility
equation below to determine By.
Byf0+A0=0
Notes:
(1) Be sure to heep the correct sions from parts a and b.
(2) The sign of B, will be relative to the drection of the unit force in Reduced Structure 2.
(meaning negative is up)
d. Now that B y is known, use statics to find the reactions at A .
