Calculate the reactions at the supports of a beam
1. A beam is in equilibrium when it is stationary relative to an inertial reference frame. The following conditions are satisfied when a beam, acted upon by a system of forces and moments, is in equilibrium. ΣFx = 0: HA = 0 ΣMA = 0: The sum of the moments about the pin support at the point A: - ((U1left - U1right )*3)/2*(3 - (2/3)*3) - U1right *3*(3 - (1/2)*3) + RB*3 - P1*4 = 0 ΣMB = 0: The sum of the moments about the roller support at the point B: - RA*3 - ((U1left - U1right )*3)/2*(3 - (0 + 1/3*3)) - U1right *3*(3 - (0 + (1/2)*3)) - P1*1 = 0 2. Calculate reaction of roller support at the point B: RB = ( ((U1left - U1right )*3)/2*(3 - (2/3)*3) + U1right *3*(3 - (1/2)*3) + P1*4) / 3 = ( 3*1 + 1.5*1.50 + 1.5*4) / 3 = 3.75 (kN) 3. Calculate reaction of pin support at the point A: RA = ( ((U1left - U1right )*3)/2*(3 - (0 + 1/3*3)) + U1right *3*(3 - (0 + (1/2)*3)) - P1*1) / 3 = ( 3*2 + 1.5*1.50 - 1.5*1) / 3 = 2.25 (kN) 4. Solve this system of equations: HA = 0 (kN) 5. The sum of the forces about the Oy axis is zero: ΣFy = 0: RA - ((U1left - U1right )*3)/2 - U1right *3 + RB - P1 = 2.25*1 - ((2.5 - 0.5)*3)/2 - 0.5*3 + 3.75*1 - 1.5 = 0
