Question 5. A beam AB is acted upon by three external forces of 300 N, 100 N and 50 N and is supported by a pin constraint at B and rocker constraint at A (hard to see!) as shown in the diagram. The beam is in equilibrium. 300 N A 45 3 m 4 m (a) Draw the Free Body Diagram for the beam. 50 N 3m 100 N B B) Use the conditions of equilibrium for the beam to determine the components of the reaction support forces at pin B and rocker A.
