    Internal forces in cables and arches


    1. Determinate the tension in each segment of the cable and the cable’s total length.

    2. Determine the forces P1 and P2 needed to hold the cable in the position show, i.e., so segment
    CD remains horizontal. Also find the maximum loading in the cable.

    3. The cable supports the uniform load of w0 = 12 kN/m. Determine the tension in the cable at
    each support A and B.

    4. Determine the maximum uniform loading w, measured in kN/m, that the cable can support if
    it is capable of sustaining a maximum tension of 15 kN before it will break.

    5. The tied three–hinged arch is subjected to the loading shown. Determine the components of
    reaction at A and C and the tension in the cable.

    6. The three–hinged spandrel arch is subjected to the loading shown. Determine the internal
    moment in the arch at point D.

    7. The arch structure is subjected to the loading shown. Determine the horizontal and vertical
    components of reaction at A and D, and the tension in the rod AD.
