Figure Q4 shows a beam, loaded at leftmost position A with 30KN, loaded in the middle with 100kN and a final load at the rightmost position E with 30kN. The beam is constructed from two types of plates, as shown in the figure, of lengths Y=2.4m and Z=2.2m. There is a left reaction force of RB at position B and a further right reaction force at RD at position D. Calculate the Bending Moment value (using the convention given to you in the module's formula book) at a position of x=5.3m. State your answer in terms of kilo-Newton-metres to one decimal place. 30 kN A Ym X = ? B Zm 100 kN с Zm Figure Q4 Bending Moment Value? D Ym 30 kN E (5 marks)


A block of metal with a Young's Modulus of E=70GPa and Poisson's ratio of 0.3, has dimensions of 41x20x60 mm for the lengths X, Y and Z respectively as illustrated in Figure Q10.

Problem 5: CLO 1Determine the force in each member of the trusses shown below.


Classify each of the following trusses as stable, unstable, statically determinate, or statically indeterminate. If indeterminate state its degree. Indicate the degree of indeterminacy.


Problem 7: CLO 1 The cable supports the loading shown. Determine the magnitude of the horizontal force P so that x = 6 ft.


Problem 6: CLO 1 The truss shown is used to support the floor deck. The uniform load on the deck is 2.5 kft. This load is transferred from the deck to the floor beams, which rest on the top joints of the truss. Determine the force in each member of the truss, and state if the members are in tension or compression. Assume all members are pin connected.
