Problem 2
For the beam shown below:
(a) Determine the degree of kinematic indeterminacy, DKI. Show your work for credit. Neglect axial deformations and take advantage of the zero moment condition (free rotation) at the hinge location.
(b) Determine the joint force vector, hat(Q).
(c) Determine the fixed-end force vector, Q0.
(d) Determine the coefficients for ALL columns of the stiffness matrix for the structure shown below. Assume that all members have an EI=100,000 kip-ft ?2
(e) Solve for the unknown displacements.
(f) Using these results from (2.e) compute the shear forces at critical sections needed to develop the shear force diagram.
(g) Draw the shear force diagram.
