Problem Set PDF

This document contains 6 problem sets involving calculating forces in structures and frames. Problem set 1 involves calculating force components in a hinged frame. Problem set 2 calculates the hinge force at point C for a pulley system supporting a load. Problem set 3 involves calculating tension and reaction forces for a cable and boom system. Problem sets 4 and 5 calculate hinge force components for additional framed structures. Problem set 6 determines how close a 200 lb force can be applied to a horizontal bar on inclined planes before motion occurs.

ENGG 409 – ENGINEERING MECHANICS
PREPARED BY: ENGR. HIPOLITO M. REVADULLA JR, CE, MP

A. The frame shown in Figure 1 is hinged to rigid supports at A and E.


Find the values of:
1. Force components of Hinge A
2. Force components of Hinge B
3. Force in Member BC
4. Force in Member BD

FIGURE 1
B. A pulley of 1-ft radius, supporting a load of 500lb, is mounted at B on a horizontal beam as shown
in Figure 2. If the beam weighs 200 lb and the pulley weighs 50 lb, find the hinge force at C.

FIGURE 2
C. Neglecting the weight of the boom and size of the pulley at D shown in Figure.
Solve:
1. Tension T in the cable
2. Components of reaction at A

FIGURE 3
D. The frame shown in Figure 4 is hinged to rigid supports at D and E and roller supported at A.
1. Find the components of hinge forces at D.
2. Find the components of hinge forces at E.

Figure 4
E. The frame shown in Figure 4 is hinged at E and roller supported at A. Neglecting the weight of
the members, Determine the horizontal and vertical components of:
1. Hinge Force B
2. Hinge Force C
3. Hinge Force D

Figure 5
F. A horizontal bar, 10 ft long and of negligible weight, rests on rough inclined planes as shown
in Figure 6. If the angle of friction is 15°, how close to B may be the 200-lb force be applied
before the motion impends
