Types of Supports Simple Support: If The Beam Rests Simply On A Support It Is

Simple supports allow beams to move along their axis and rotate, with reactions perpendicular to the support. Roller supports are frictionless and have normal reactions, letting beams move but rotate. Hinged supports prevent movement but allow rotation, with reactions that can be split into horizontal and vertical components to keep the end stationary.

TYPES OF SUPPORTS

Various types of supports and reactions developed are listed below:


Simple Support: If the beam rests simply on a support it is
called a simple support. In such case the reaction at the support is at
right angles to the support and the beam is free to move in the direction
of its axis and also it is free to rotate about the support (Fig. 9.1).
Roller Support: In this case, beam end is supported on rollers.
In such cases, reaction is normal to the support since rollers can be
treated as frictionless. [Fig. 9.2 (a)]. Many mechanical components
are having roller supports which roll between guides. In such cases,
reaction will be normal to the guides, in both the direction (Fig. 9.2).
At roller support beam is free to move along the support. It can rotate
about the support also.
Hinged Support: At a hinged end, a beam cannot move in any direction. However, it can
rotate about the support (Fig. 9.3). Hence the support will not develop any resisting moment, but it
can develop reaction in any direction to keep the end stationary. The reaction R can be split into its
horizontal and vertical components for the purpose of analysis.
