EQUILIBRIUM OF NON-CONCURRENT
COPLANAR FORCE SYSTEM
When a body is in equilibrium, it has neither translatory
nor rotatory motion in any direction. Thus the resultant
force R and the resultant couple M are both zero, and we
have the equilibrium equations for two dimensional force
system
 Fx = 0;
 Fy = 0
Eq(1)
M = 0
These requirements are both necessary and sufficient
conditions for equilibrium.

Supports: A structure is subjected to external forces
and transfers these forces through the supports on to the
foundation. Therefore the support reactions and the
external forces together keep the structure in equilibrium.
Types of supports
There are different types of supports. Some of them are
a) Roller Support b) Hinged or pinned support c) Fixed
or built in support
Some supports are shown in the figure along with the
reactions that can be mobilised.

Types of Supports
Action on body
(a) Flexible cable ,belt ,chain,

T
Force exerted by cable is
always a tension away from
the body in the direction of
cable
(b) Smooth surfaces
Contact forces are normal to
the surfaces

(c) Roller
support
Contact force is normal to the
surface on which the roller moves.
The reaction will always be
perpendicular to the plane of the
roller . Roller support will offer
only one independent reaction
component.(Whose direction is
known.)

This support does not allow any translatory movement of
the rigid body. There will be two independent reaction
components at the support. The resultant reaction can be
resolved into two mutually perpendicular components.
Or it can be shown as resultant reaction inclined at an
angle with respect to a reference direction.

(contd .)
This type of support not only prevents the translatory
movement of the rigid body, but also the rotation of the
rigid body. Hence there will be 3 independent reaction
components of forces. Hence there will be 3 unknown
components of forces, two mutually perpendicular
reactive force component and a reactive moment as
shown in the figure.

TYPES OF BEAMS
A member which is subjected to predominantly transverse loads
and supported in such a way that rigid body motion is prevented
is known as beam. It is classified based on the support
conditions. A beam generally supported by a hinge or roller at
the ends having one span(distance between the support) is
called as simply supported beam. A beam which is fixed at one
end and free at another end is called as a cantilever beam.

Statically determinate beam and statically indeterminate
beam:
Using the equations of equilibrium given in EQ(1) ,if all the
reaction components can be found out, then the beam is a
statically determinate beam ,and if all the reaction
components can not be found out using equations of
equilibrium only, then the beam is a statically indeterminate
beam.
In the above fig (a),(b)and ( c ) are statically determinate
beams ,where as (d),(e) and ( f) are statically Indeterminate
beams .

If the number of reaction components is more than the
number of non-trivial equilibrium equations available then
such a beam is a statically indeterminate beam.
If the number of reaction components is equal to the
number of non-trivial equilibrium equations available then
such a beam is a statically determinate beam
If the number of reaction components is less than the
number of non-trivial equilibrium equations available then
such a beam is an unstable beam.

Determination of Beam reactions
Since three equilibrium equations are available, for a planar
structure a maximum of three unknown independent reaction
components can be determined using these equations.
Step I: Draw the free body diagram of the structure showing
the given loadings and the reactions at the supports.
Step 2: Apply the equations  Fx = 0,  Fy = 0, M = 0.
Assuming some directions and senses for unknown forces
and moments.
Step 3: solve for unknown reactions. If any of them is positive,
it is along the sense initially assumed while drawing the FBD.
If it is negative, it is opposite to the initially assumed sense 13
