STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS

STATICALLY DETERMINATE-INDETERMINATE
 STATICALLY DETERMINATE :
Statical equilibrium sufficient to determine support reactions and internal force distributions
 STATICALLY INDETERMINATE (hyperstatic) :
Statical equilibrium insufficient to determine support reactions and/or internal force
distributions
a) Statically determinate
b) Statically determinate for support reactions
indeterminate for internal forces
