Pin supports, such as that at A, may have horizontal and vertical components to the support reaction. Roller supports, such as that at B, have only a vertical component. What are the support reactions for this beam

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete below is the missing part of the question and attached is the missing diagram

In the simply-supported beam shown in the figure below, d1=14 ft, d2=7 ft, and F=15 kips. so find Az, Ay, By.(in kips)

answer :

Reaction force at B = 10 kips

Reaction force in the y axis = 5 kips

Reaction force in the Z direction = 0 kips

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking moment about point A

∑ Ma = 0

By + ( d1 + d2 ) - F*d1 = 0

By ( reaction force at B ) = ( 15 * 14 ) / ( 21 ) = 10 kips

Applying equilibrium forces in the Y-axis

∑ Fy = 0

Ay - F + By = 0

where : F = 15, By = 10

hence ; Ay = 5 kips

applying equilibrium forces in the Z-direction

∑ Fz = 0

Az = 0 kips
