Question: Problem 2 ( 2 0 points ) . The structure is made of a straight member ( AB ) and a L - shaped member

Problem 2(20 points).
The structure is made of a straight member (AB) and a L-shaped member (BCD), they are connected by the hinge joint B. Both A and C are hinge supports. A concentrated load of 2qL is applied to AB, a distributed load of q is applied to the entire length member BC.
i. calculate the reactions at A and D; (6 points)
ii. draw the axial force diagram N of AB-BCD(4 points)
iii. draw the shear force diagram [V] of AB-BCD (4 points)
iv. draw the bending moment diagram M of AB-BCD(4 points)
v. if the action line of the force 2qL is shifted toward left by 0.5L, will the horizontal reactions at A and D be changed? Why? (2 points)
Problem 2 ( 2 0 points ) . The structure is made
