 ARCHS & CABLES ANALYSIS
EXAMPLE NO. 1
THE TIED ARCH IS SUBJECTED TO THE LOADINGS AS SHOWN IN THE FIGURE. DETERMINE THE
COMPONENTS OF THE REACTIONS OF A AND B AND THE TENSION IN TIE ROD AB.

SOLUTIONS:
 EXAMPLE NO. 2
THE THREE HINGED OPEN SPANDREL ARCH BRIDGE IS TO SUPPORT A UNIFORM LOAD AND
HAVE A DIMENSIN AS SHOWN IN THE FIGURE. PROVE THAT THE ARCH IS SUBJECTED ONLU
TO AXIAL COMPRESSION AT ANY INTERMEDIATE POINT SUCH AS POINT D.

SOLUTIONS:
 EXAMPLE NO. 3
THE TIEDS THREE-HINGED ARCH IS SUBJECTED TO THE LOADING SHOWN. DETERMINE THE
COMPONENTS OF REACTION AT A AND C AND THE TENSION IN THE CABLE.

SOLUTIONS:
 DISPLACEMENTS & DEFLECTIONS OF STRUCTURES
EXAMPLE NO. 1
DETERMINE THE MID SPAN DEFLECTION AND END SLOPES OF A SIMPLY SUPPORTED BEAM
OF SPAN L CARRYING A udl w UNIT LENGTH

SOLUTIONS:
 EXAMPLE NO. 2
THE CANTILEVER BEAM SHOWN IN FIGURE BELOW HAS A RECTANGULAR CROSS-SECTION
50mm WIDE BY h mm HIGH. FIND THE HEIGHT IF THE MAXIMUM DEFLECTION DOES NOT
EXCEED 10mm. USE E = 10 GPa.

SOLUTIONS:
 EXAMPLE NO.3
COMPUTE THE DEFLECTION AND SLOPE AT A SECTION 3m FROM THE WALL FOR THE BEAM
SHOWN IN FIGURE BELOW. ASSUME THAT E = 10GPa AND I = 30 x 106mm^4

SOLUTIONS:
