Question

The multi-span girder in the figure has two shear plate connections that act as hinges at C and D. The mid-span girder CD is simply supported on the cantilevered ends

of the left and right girders. Determine the forces in the hinges and the reactions at supports A, B,E, and F. Given: X=9 kips/ft. The magnitude of the force in the hinge C is Cy=------kips, and the direction is ( (Click to select) The magnitude of the force in the hinge D is Dy=---kips, and the direction is(Click to select) + The magnitude of the reaction at support A is Ay=kips, and the direction is ( (Click to select) The magnitude of the reaction at support B is By= kips, and the direction is (Click to select) The magnitude of the reaction at support E is Ev=----kips, and the direction is ((Click to select), The magnitude of the reaction at support F is Fy=|| kips, and the direction is ( (Click to select)
