The bend is connected to the pipe at flanges A and B as shown. If the diameter of the pipe is 1 ft and it carries a discharge of 50 ft3/s, determine the horizontal and vertical components of force reaction and the moment reaction exerted at the fixed base D of the support. The total weight of the bend and the water within it is 500 lb, with a mass center at point G. The gauge pressure of the water at the flanges at A and B are 15 psi and 12 psi, respectively. Assume that no force is transferred to the flanges at A and B. The specific weight of water is γw = 62.4 lb/ft3.
