CE 332 Structural Analysis I Name: ______________ Fall 2001 Exam 2 Note: Spring 2009 students DO NOT SOLVE PROBLEM 1 Problem 1 (15 pts.) Utilizing any of the methods you learned in this class to analyzed statically indeterminate structures, calculate the shear and the moments at both ends of column CD. If needed, you may assume that the area of column CD is twice as much as the area of columns AB and GH. Also, you may assume that the area of column DE equals to the area of column GF. 16k 8k A B E F G H D C 16' 16' 8' 8'Problem 2 (30 pts.) Calculate the vertical deflection and the rotation on the left of hinge h of the system shown below. Assume Constant EI. 4 k/ft h A B C 8k 6' 8' 4'Problem 3 (40 pts.) Analyze the frame shown below utilizing the method of consistent deformation. Select the horizontal reaction of A as a redundant. Draw moment diagram for member AB only. Locate the inflection points and give the magnitude and the location of the maximum positive moment in member AB. 6k C B A 2 k/ft D 12' 24' 4' EI = constantProblem 4 (15 pts.) i) Define what is meant by the flexibility coefficient fij. ii) Develop the flexibility matrix of the system shown below.
