Let's break down the solution as per the requirements: --- ### 1. **Virtual Work Method Analysis** #### a. **Draw the Complete P-V-M Diagrams** Let's identify the loads: - **Uniformly Distributed Load (UDL):** 25 kN/m on AB (2m span) - **Point Load:** 20 kN at B (horizontal) - **Point Load:** 50 kN at C (vertical) #### **Step 1: Calculate Reactions** Assume joint D is fixed and C is free (as per the diagram). - **At D:** Vertical reaction \( D_y \), horizontal reaction \( D_x \), and moment \( M_D \). - **At C:** No reactions (since it's initially free for virtual work). ##### Convert UDL to Point Load: - UDL on AB: \( 25 \times 2 = 50 \) kN acting at the center (1m from A). ##### Take Moments about D: Sum moments about D = 0, \[ \text{Moment from UDL:} \quad 50 \text{ kN} \times 3 \text{ m} \] (center of UDL is 3 m right and 2 m up from D) \[ \text{Moment from vertical 50 kN at C:} \quad 50 \text{ kN} \times 2 \text{ m} \] (distance from D to C horizontally) \[ \text{Moment from 20 kN at B:} \quad 20 \text{ kN} \times 2 \text{ m} \] (distance from D to B vertically) Set up equilibrium (sum of moments = 0; signs depend on chosen direction): \[ (D_y \times 0) + (D_x \times 0) + M_D + (50 \times 3) + (50 \times 2) + (20 \times 2) = 0 \] But, let's clarify the geometry and solve reactions: #### **Step 2: Draw P-V-M Diagrams** - **Shear Force Diagram (V):** - AB: UDL, so linear variation - BC: No UDL, just point load at C - BD: Point load at B - **Bending Moment Diagram (M):** - AB: Parabolic (due to UDL) - BC: Linear (due to point load) - BD: Linear (Detailed calculations for diagrams can be done if required.) --- #### b. **Vertical Deflection of Joint A (\(\delta_A\))** Use **Virtual Work**: \[ \delta_A = \int \frac{M \cdot m_A}{EI} dx \] Where: - \( M \) = moment due to real loads - \( m_A \) = moment due to 1 unit load at A (vertical direction) - \( EI \) = flexural rigidity **Steps:** 1. Apply a unit load vertically at A. 2. Calculate moment diagrams for both real and virtual loading. 3. Integrate over the length of each member. --- #### c. **Rotation at Joint B (\(\theta_B\))** Use **Virtual Work**: \[ \theta_B = \int \frac{M \cdot m_B}{EI} dx \] Where: - \( m_B \) = moment due to 1 unit moment at B **Steps:** 1. Apply a unit moment at B. 2. Calculate moment diagrams for both real and virtual loading. 3. Integrate as above. --- ### 2. **Vertical Reaction at C (\( C_y \)) using Force Method** - **Now, C is a roller (vertical reaction only).** - Remove support at C and replace it with unknown reaction \( C_y \). - Use compatibility (deflection at C = 0): \[ \delta_{C, \text{loads}} + C_y \cdot \delta_{C, 1} = 0 \] Where: - \( \delta_{C, \text{loads}} \) = vertical deflection at C due to real loads (with C free) - \( \delta_{C, 1} \) = vertical deflection at C due to 1 unit vertical load at C (with C free) Solve for \( C_y \): \[ C_y = -\frac{\delta_{C, \text{loads}}}{\delta_{C, 1}} \] --- ### 3. **Section Properties** Given: - \( E = 70 \) GPa = \( 70 \times 10^3 \) N/mm² - \( I = 1,290 \times 10^6 \) mm⁴ --- ## **Summary Table** | Step | Description | Formula / Procedure | |------|-------------|---------------------| | 1a | Draw P-V-M diagrams | Use statics and geometry | | 1b | Deflection at A | \( \delta_A = \int \frac{M \cdot m_A}{EI} dx \) | | 1c | Rotation at B | \( \theta_B = \int \frac{M \cdot m_B}{EI} dx \) | | 2 | Vertical reaction at C | \( C_y = -\frac{\delta_{C, \text{loads}}}{\delta_{C, 1}} \) | --- **Would you like to see detailed step-by-step calculations for any specific part (e.g., drawing diagrams, virtual work integrations, or the force method)?**
