Statics of Rigid Bodies

Professor: Sir Vernes Go

Introduction

Statistics of Rigid Bodies – a branch of engineering

mechanics concerned with bodies at rest and forces
in equilibrium.
Mechanics – branch of physics that considers the
action of forces on bodies and fluids that are at rest.
Engineering Mechanics – branch of engineering
science that helps applies the principles of
mechanics to engineering design. Force Systems – where two/more forces act on a
body or a group of related bodies.
Important Terms and Concepts in Statics Characteristics of Force:
• Magnitude – impact of force
• Units – the standards of measurement (i.e. • Direction – direction of the force is in the
kg, ft/sec, miles) direction opposite the object's direction of
• Dimensions – refers to the type of motion
measurement (i.e. mass, velocity, length) • Point of Application (Contact Point) – where
• Dimensional Homogeneity – characteristic the force was applied
of an equation where each term has the • Line of Action – continuous line where the
same dimension necessary to represent force passes through
physical phenomena or mathematical
equations.
• Newton’s Law of Gravitation – states that
two particle are attracted to each other by
forces that act along the line connecting the
particles.

Principle of Transmissibility – states that a force

without changing its external effects on a rigid body.
Types of Forces Used in Statics:
Types of Forces According to Point of Application:
• Gravitational – eight of an object
• Applied – push or pull
• Tension – cables
• Frictional – force exerted by the surface to
the body who’s direction is opposite to the
motion. • Concurrent – line of forces intersecting at
• Normal – force exerted by the object one point.
perpendicular to the surface. • Non-concurrent – opposite of concurrent
• Spring – force exerted by the spring, which is
computed as a spring constant.

Types of Forces According to Plane Application: Component Forces – forces that contribute to the
magnitude of the resultant.
Rigid Body – may be defined as a body which can
retain its shape and size, even if subjected to some
external forces.
• Coplanar – forces act on the same plane
• Non-coplanar – forces act on different Particle – a body of infinitely small volume and is
planes considered to be concentrated point.

Free-body Diagrams – diagram showing all the

forces acting on the object at a certain time.
Given forces can be presented in the following
forms:

Quantity – the amount or numbers of a material

gathered through measurements.
Two Types of Quantity: Composition of Forces (Compounding of Forces) –
• Scalar – defined by magnitude and unit. process of finding out the resultant force of a
number of given forces.
• Vector – defined by magnitude, unit, and
direction. Methods of Finding the Resultant Force:
Equilibrium – state where system would remain at
rest when subjected to set of forces and couples and
should satisfy the following conditions:

Parallelogram Law – graphical method of solving for

resultants which states that if two forces, acting
simultaneously on a particle, be represented by the
two adjacent sides of a parallelogram; their
resultant may be represented in magnitude and
direction by the diagonal of the parallelogram,
Principle of Physical which passes through their point of intersection.

acting on a particle, then
the resultant of these forces
will have the same effect as
produced by all the forces.
Resultant Force – a single force that creates the
same effect to a system or body to that of a number
of forces acting at the same point.

• Pin or Hinged Support – reactions forces are
horizontal (𝒂𝒙 ) and vertical (𝒂𝒚 ).
BEAMS VS. GIRDER
• Roller Support – vertical reaction force.
All girders are beam, but not all beams are girders.
• Linked Support – usually tensile cables,
support is always tensile (any direction).
• Rocker Support – similar to roller support;
resists vertical force and allows horizontal
translation and rotation.

Joists – support is beam to beam

Beam – beam to girder and vice versa
Girders – transports load to columns

Roof Beams Types

a. Purlins
- Also acts as beams but supports roofing
sheets.
- A horizontal beam along the length of a roof,
resting on a main rafter, directly connected to
the roofing materials.
b. Rafters
- Similar to girder
- Sloped structural members that extend from
the ridge or hip to the wall plate, downslope
perimeter or eave, and that are designed to
support the roof deck (usually the top of a
truss).

Beam types by support

one side and hanging on the other end
