Discussed Questions

The rigid-jointed frame shown in the figure is
  • a)
    unstable
  • b)
    stable and statically determinate
  • c)
    stable and statically indeterminate by one degree
  • d)
    stable and statically indeterminate by two degree
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

For a rigid joined 2D frame structure. Degree of static indeterminacy
Ds=3m+r-3j
here
Ds=3x2+3-3x3=0.
Hence it is statically determinate.
And since reactions are not parallel or concurrent it is a stable member.
