Gere & Goodno — Tension, Compression, and Shear: Problem 1.3-19

1.3-19 A plane frame is restrained at joints A and C, as shown in the figure. Members AB and BC are pin connected at B. A triangularly distributed lateral load with a peak intensity of 1300 N/m acts on AB. A concentrated moment is applied at joint C. (a) Find reactions at supports A and C. (b) Find internal stress resultants N, V, and M at x = 1.0 m on column AB.
