Chapter 4, Problem 4.5.38P
Beam ABC is supported by a tie rod CD as shown. Two configurations are possible: pin support at A and downward triangular load on AB or pin at B and upward load on AB. Which has the larger maximum moment?
First, find all support reactions; then plot axial force (N), shear (V), and moment (M) diagrams for ABC only and label all critical N, V, and M values. Label the distance to points where any critical ordinates are zero.
