    Engineering Statics: Resultant

    Uploaded by

    Noor Sultan
    This document discusses engineering statics and resultants. It defines a resultant force as the simplest force combination that can replace original forces without changing their external effect. It also states that equilibrium occurs when the resultant of all forces is zero, and that determining resultants is fundamental to both statics and dynamics. The document goes on to describe methods for determining resultants including the algebraic method and principle of moments, which states the moment of the resultant equals the sum of the individual moments. It also discusses determining resultants for concurrent and parallel forces.

    Engineering Statics

    Resultant
    Resultant Force:
     The resultant of a system of forces is the simplest force
    combination which can replace the original forces without
    altering the external effect on the rigid body to which the forces
    are applied.
     Equilibrium of a body is the condition in which the resultant of
    all forces acting on the body is zero.
     When the resultant of all forces on a body is not zero, the
    acceleration of the body is obtained by equating the force
    resultant to the product of the mass and acceleration of the
    body.
     Determination of resultants is basic to both statics and
    dynamics.
    Forces act in a single plane:
    Algebraic Method:
    Principles of Moment:
    It states that the moment of the resultant force about any point
    O equals the sum of the moments of the original forces of the
    system about the same point. This extends Varignon’s theorem
    to the case of non-concurrent force systems. This is known as
    principle of moment.

    For concurrent forces:


    For a concurrent system of forces where the lines of action of all
    forces pass through a common point O, the moment sum ΣMO about
    that point is zero and resultant of forces, R = ΣF
    For Parallel Forces:
     Zero Resultant force
     Resultant clockwise Couple, M= F3d
