Textbook Question
Chapter 5.4, Problem 26P
The mobile crane is symmetrically supported by two outriggers at A and two at B in order to relieve the suspension of the truck upon which it rests and to provide greater stability. If the crane boom and truck have a mass of 18 Mg and center of mass at G1, and the boom has a mass of 1.8 Mg and a center of mass at G2, determine the vertical reactions at each of the four outriggers as a function of the boom angle θ when the boom is supporting a load having a mass of 1.2 Mg. Plot the results measured from θ = 0° to the critical angle where tipping starts to occur.

The mobile crane is symmetrically supported by two outriggers at A and two at B to relieve the suspension of the truck upon which it
rests and to provide greater stability. If the truck, crane, and counter-weight have a total mass of 18-tonnes and center of mass at G1, while
the boom has a mass of 1.8-tonnes and a center of mass at G2, determine the critical angle where tipping starts to occur when the boom
is supporting a load having a mass of 3-tonnes. Plot the total reactions at A and B (in kN) as functions of θ from θ=0° to the critical angle.
