LECTURE 1
INTRODUTION TO STATICALLY INDETERMINATE STRUCTURES

What is a structure?

 Structures are a group of members, such as beams, columns, slabs,


foundations, girders, and trusses that work as a unit to fulfil a purpose.

Idealization of loads

F.O.ARASA
TCV 4224 ANALYSIS OF STRUCTURES II LECTURE NOTES

 An engineer's duty is to design structures in a professional, safe, and


economical manner.
 They calculate the reaction forces due to the external forces
applied to the structure as well as internal forces, such as the bending
moment, shear force, and axial force.

What are static indeterminate structures?

 Statically determinate structures are structures that can be analyzed


using static equations only, (i.e., equilibrium in all directions).

 On the other hand, statically indeterminate structures can't be analysed


using static equations only; they require other material properties, such
as deformations, in order to analyse them.

Static Indeterminacy of Structures


The following figures illustrate some example of statically determinate
Figures 1.1a-c) and indeterminate structures (Figures 1.2a-c)

F.O.ARASA
TCV 4224 ANALYSIS OF STRUCTURES II LECTURE NOTES

Degree of static indeterminacy = Total number of unknown (external and


internal)Forces - Number of independent equations of equilibrium

F.O.ARASA
TCV 4224 ANALYSIS OF STRUCTURES II LECTURE NOTES

 For an indeterminate system, some support(s) or internal member(s) can


be removed without disturbing its equilibrium.
 If a system has less than required number of supports and internal
members to maintain equilibrium, then it is considered unstable.

Advantages of Statically Indeterminate Structures


1) Statically indeterminate structures typically result in smaller stresses
and greater stiffness (smaller deflections) as illustrated for the
beam in Figure 1.4. It follows that a smaller beam section would be
required in the fixed-fixed beam case, resulting in savings in material
(economical design)

F.O.ARASA
TCV 4224 ANALYSIS OF STRUCTURES II LECTURE NOTES

2) Statically indeterminate structures introduce redundancy, which


may ensure that failure in one part of the structure will not result in
catastrophic or collapse failure of the structure (they are stable). This
is illustrated in Figure 1.5.

Disadvantages of Statically Indeterminate Structures


(a) Statically indeterminate structure is self-strained due to support
settlement, which produces stresses, as illustrated in Figure 1.5.

F.O.ARASA
TCV 4224 ANALYSIS OF STRUCTURES II LECTURE NOTES

(b) Statically indeterminate structures are also self-strained due to


temperature changes and fabrication errors, as illustrated in Figure
1.7.

(c) A nalysis requires the calculation of displacements hence, their cross-


sectional dimensions are required at the onset. The design of such
structures therefore becomes a matter of trial and error, whereas the
forces in the members of a statically determinate structure are
independent of member size.
