Fixed-fixed bar under axial loads
Problem statement
Calculate the reactions at the fixed supports A and B of the bar shown, subjected to axial loads of 7 kN, 15 kN and 10 kN.
Figure data: 7 kN and 15 kN to the right and 10 kN to the left; segments of 1.0 m, 3.0 m, 4.0 m and 2.0 m.
Concepts: statically indeterminate, fixed-support reactions, axial load, compatibility of deformations
