INTRODUCTION
Strength of Materials is one of the most important disciplines which makes the
foundations of the future specialist of the civil engineering in the field of structural
calculation and their elements for strength, stiffness and durability of machines and
structures.
The course of Strength of Materials is studied by students after learning the
courses of higher mathematics and theoretical mechanics.
For the design of structures, it is necessary to learn the theoretical and practical
methods of their calculation, which ensure the reliability of the structure, and its cost-
effectiveness. In the conditions of exploitation of structures there is a constant problem
of their calculation for high loads. Such calculations and knowledge can be obtained
by studying the course Strength of Materials.
When acquiring a course on Strength of Materials, the most effective method is
the students independent solving problems and control tasks. The Guidelines are used
for students independent work on the theme “Calculation of a statically indeterminate
frame by the force method”. It contain theoretical statements and variants of problems
for control work and an example of its application.
Each student is given out a problem to perform the calculation and graphical
work, and in order to eliminate possible questions when performing home control
work, practical classes are held to analyses the basic positions of homework.
After receiving a note on the supervisory work, the student must correct the
mistakes indicated by the teacher, make the necessary corrections, even if the work has
been approved.
If the work is not approved, correct the same or in a separate drawing and
resubmit the work for reconsideration. Independence in the execution of calculated and
graphical work is of paramount importance for mastering program material. Detailed
instructions for completing and design of the problem are given below.

1 THE FORCE METHOD FOR STATICAL INDETERMINATE
FRAME
The work is executed in accordance with the personal code of the student, on
which from the table the output and the frame scheme are chosen. Works carried out
without following instructions, are not approved and returned without consideration.
It is recommended that you submit your work for review immediately after
completion so that the reviewer's comments can be taken into account and corrected.
Basic information of the Force Method
Statically indeterminate structures are the structures for which all reactions and
internal forces cannot be determined simply using equilibrium equations. Redundant
constraints (or excess) are constraints, which are not necessary for geometrical
unchangeability of a given structure.
Degree of redundancy, or statically indeterminacy, equals to the number of
redundant constraints which elimination leads to the new geometrically unchangeable
and statically determinate structure. Degree of statically redundancy is the difference
between the number of constraints and number of independent equilibrium equations
which can be written for a given structure.
Primary unknowns represent reactions (forces and/or moments), which arise in
redundant constraints. That method is called the Force Method. Unknown internal
forces also may be treated as primary unknowns. Primary system (principal or released
structure) is such structure, which is obtained from the given one by eliminating
redundant constraints and replacing them by primary unknowns.
The following procedure may be recommended for analysis of statically
indeterminate structures by the superposition principle:
1. Determine the degree of statical indeterminacy.
2. Choose the redundant unknowns; their number equals to degree of statical
indeterminacy.
3. Construct the statically determinate structure (primary structure) by
eliminating all redundant constraints.
5
4. Replace the eliminated constraints by primary unknowns. These unknowns
present reactions of eliminated constraints.
5. Form the compatibility equations; their number is equal to degree of statical
indeterminacy.
Each compatibility equation should be presented in terms of given loads and
primary unknowns.
6. Solve the system of equations with respect to primary unknowns.
7. Since reactions of the redundant constraints are determined, then the
computation of all remaining reactions and analysis of the structure may be performed
as for the statically determinate structure.
Canonical equations of force method offer a unified procedure for analysis of
statically indeterminate structures of different types. The word “canonical” indicates
that these equations are presented in standard, or in an orderly fashion form. Very
important is that canonical equations of the force method may be presented in a matrix
form. Thus, this set of equations is a first bridge between classical analytical methods
and numerical ones.
The Concept of Unit Displacements
Analysis of any statically indeterminate structure by the force method begins
with determination of degree of statical indeterminacy. Primary system is obtained by
elimination of redundant constraints and replacing them by reactions of these
constrains. Primary unknowns Xi represent reactions (forces or moments) in eliminated
redundant constrains.
Let us consider a simple redundant structure, such as clamped-pinned beam. The
number of redundant constraints is n = 4 - 3 = 1. Assume that the right rolled support
is the redundant one. Thus the reaction of this constraint, X1, is a primary unknown.
Given and primary systems are shown in Figure 1.

All coefficients ik of canonical equations represent a displacement of the
primary structure due to unit primary unknowns; these coefficients are called the unit
displacements.
Physical meaning of the canonical equations. The left part of the i th equation
presents the total displacement along the direction of unknown Xi due to action of all
real unknowns Xk as well as applied load. Total displacement of the primary structure
in directions of eliminated restrictions caused by primary unknowns and applied load
equals zero. In this case, the difference between the given and primary structures is
vanished.
Calculation of Coefficients and Free Terms of Canonical Equations
Computation of coefficients and free terms of canonical equations presents
significant and very important part of analysis of any statically indeterminate structure.
For their calculation, any methods can be applied. The graph multiplication
method is best suited for beams and framed structures. For this, it is necessary in
primary system to construct bending moment diagrams M1, M 2 ,..., M n due to unit
primary unknowns Xi , i = 1,…, n and diagram MP due to given load. Unit
displacements and loaded terms are calculated by Mohr’s formula

Construction of internal force diagrams. Solution of (4) is the primary unknowns
Xi , i = 1,…, n. After that the primary system may be loaded by determined primary
unknowns and given load. Internal forces may be computed as for usual statically
determinate structure. However, the following way allows once again an effective use
of the bending moment diagrams in primary system. The final bending moment
diagram MP may be constructed by formula:
M P M1 X1 M 2 X 2 ... M n X n M P . (8)
Procedure for analysis The following procedure provides analysis of statically
indeterminate beams and frames using the canonical equations of the force method:
1. Provide the kinematical analysis and define the degree of statically
indeterminacy n of a structure.
2. Choose the primary system and replace the eliminated redundant constraints by
corresponding primary unknowns Xi , i = 1,… n.
3. Formulate the canonical equations of the force method.
4. Apply the successive unit forces X1 = 1; X2 = 1; … ; Xn = 1 to primary system
and for each unit primary unknown construct corresponding bending moment diagrams
M1, M 2 ,..., M n .

11. Provide the kinematical control (2) for displacements of an entire structure in
direction of primary unknowns.
Intermediate checking of computation These verifications are recommended to be
performed before solving canonical equations for determining primary unknowns Xi ,
i.e., on the steps 5 and 6 of the algorithm above. For control of unit displacements and
free terms, it is necessary to construct summary unit bending moment diagram

The result of this multiplication equals to the sum of unit displacements of the i-

Problem
Static indeterminately are systems which reactions cannot be established by
equilibrium equations only.
Output data:
For the frame shown in Figure 3a to determine constrained reactions and to draw
a diagram Q and M, and longitudinal forces N.
Solution: The procedure for the calculation of frames by force is as follows:
1. Degree of redundancy, or statically indeterminacy.
Determine the degree of statically indeterminacy.
So, for the frame shown in fig. 3 a, by the formula:
п = 4-3 = 1.
The given frame is one statically indeterminate. Choose the redundant
unknowns; their number equals to degree of statically indeterminacy.
2. Choosing the primary system. Construct the statically determinate system
(primary structure) by eliminating all redundant constraints (Fig. 3b). Change the
eliminated constraints by primary unknowns. These unknowns present reactions of
eliminated constraints.

The compatibility equation is called the canonical equation of the force method for any
structure with one redundant constraint; the free term ∆1F is called the loaded term (loaded
displacement, free term). The solution of the canonical equation allows us to calculate the primary
unknown X1.
