Indeterminate Structures
Advantages:
• Smaller moments/stresses as compare to statically
determinate structures.
o e.g. Mmax = PL/4 and PL/8
• Smaller deflection.
• Tendency to redistribute its loads to its redundant
supports (in case of overloading or faulty design).
o Important in earthquake or unexpected wind loading.

Disadvantages:
• Complex analysis.
• May become Costly (to add additional cost of supports
and joints).
• Not recommended in differential settlement soil
conditions (it causes internal stresses in the structures).
• Not recommended where there is possibility of
fabrication errors or significant temperature changes.

Draw the SFD and BMD for Fixed-Fixed beam. The left half of
the beam is loaded with 2 kN/m uniformly distributed load. Take
the length L=20 m and EI is constant. Neglect the axial loading
effects (i.e. Ax = Bx = 0).
