Once Statically Indeterminate Frame With Horizontal Reaction As Redundant

This document provides steps to analyze a statically indeterminate frame using the method of consistent deformations. [1] The frame is determined to be statically indeterminate to the first degree. [2] To solve this, the horizontal reaction at support D is selected as redundant and removed, creating a primary determinate structure. [3] Reactions, moment, shear, and axial load diagrams are drawn for the primary structure and original structure.

Consistent Deformations - Force Method


Once Statically Indeterminate Frame with Horizontal
Reaction as Redundant

problem statement

Using the method of consistent deformations, determine the reactions, draw moment, shear, and
axial load diagrams for the frame in the accompanying figure. The modulus of elasticity (E) and
the moment of inertia (I) are constant for the entire structure.

Figure 1 - Frame structure to analyze

 determine the degree of indeterminacy

The structure is statically indeterminate to the first degree (r=4, e=3, n = r-e = 4-3 = 1).

 select redundants and remove restraints

To solve for this single degree of indeterminacy, the structure has to be reduced to a statically
determinate and stable structure. This is done by removing a redundant support.

In this example, the horizontal reaction at support D is selected as a redundant to remove in order
to obtain a primary determinate structure.

 determine reactions and draw moment diagram for the primary structure

Calculate the support reactions of the primary structure.

Determine the moment diagram M0 due to the applied loads on the primary structure.

note: colors represent one method of dividing the area in the moment diagram to be used in the
visual integration.

 sketch deflected shape

Sketch an approximate deflected shape for the primary structure, (see Fig. 4). Label the
deflection that occurs in the direction of the redundant at the released support.

Figure 5 - Deflected shape

 calculate deformations at redundants

Using the virtual work method, calculate the horizontal translation of support D that corresponds
to the redundant XD. Remove all loads and apply a unit force in the direction of the redundant,
draw the moment diagram, md, and sketch the deflected shape due to this unit load.

Calculate the translation, D0 , at Support D using the following equation:

Using the method of virtual work, calculate areas on the M0 diagram and multiply each area by
the corresponding heights, hi, measured at the centroid of this area on the md diagram:

Area No. Area/EI (A) (k-ft2)/EI Height (h) on md diagram (k-ft) Ai*hi (k2-ft3)/EI
A01 1/2 x 15 x 206.25/EI = 1546.875/EI 2/3 x -7.5 = -5 -7734.375/EI
A02 1/2 x 15 x 206.25/EI = 1546.875/EI 2/3 x -15 = -10 -15468.75/EI
A03 1/2 x 15 x 112.5/EI = 843.75/EI 5/6 x -15 = -12.5 -10546.875/EI
A04 1/2 x 15 x 112.5/EI = 843.75/EI 2/3 x -15 = -10 -8437.5/EI
A05 2/3 x 15 x 28.125/EI = 281.25/EI 1/2 x -15 = -7.5 -2109.375/EI
Total = Q( D0) = -44296.875/EI

Therefore, with Q = 1 k;
Q( D0) = -44296.875 (k2-ft3)/EI
3
D0 = -44296.875 (k-ft )/EI

Calculate the flexibility coefficient, fdd, by determining the deformations of the primary structure
when subjected to the redundant load, XD = 1 k.

Again, using the method of virtual work, calculate areas on the md diagram and multiply by the
corresponding heights, hi, measured at the centroid of the area:

Area No. Area/EI (A) (k-ft2)/EI Height (h) on md diagram (k-ft) Ai*hi (k2-ft3)/EI
A11 1/2 x 30 x -15/EI = -225/EI 2/3 x -15 = -10 2250/EI
A12 1/2 x 15 x -15/EI = -112.5/EI 2/3 x -15 = -10 1125/EI
fdd = 3375/EI

Therefore, with Q = 1 k;
Q(fdd) = 3375 (k2-ft3)/EI
fdd = 3375 (k-ft3)/EI

 write consistent deformation equations

The consistent deformation equation that corresponds to the redundant X1 (the horizontal
reaction at support D) is:

D0 + fdd * X1 = 0   (1)

This equation is set equal to zero since the pinned support at D does not allow any translation in
the direction of the redundant, i.e., in the horizontal direction.

 solve consistent deformation equation

Using equation (1), solve for X1:


-44,296.875 (k-ft3)/EI + 3375/EI (k-ft3)/EI* XD = 0
X1 = 13.125

Multiply the unit load, Q, at XD by 13.125 to get the final reaction. The positive answer indicates
that the reaction is in the direction of the applied unit load.

 determine support reactions

Impose the value of the calculated support reaction at X1 corresponding to the redundant XD,
along with the other applied loads on the original structure. Calculate the remaining reactions
using the three static equilibrium equations, ( Fx = 0, Fy = 0 and M = 0).

 draw moment, shear, and axial load diagrams

All reactions are now known and are used to draw the complete shear and moment diagrams for
the structure.
