Explain the difference between statically determinate beam and statically in determinate beam with sketch.
1 answer:
Answer
Statically determinate beams are those beams in which the unknown reaction forces are equal or less than the equilibrium equation.
As shown in figure 1 in which reaction forces are 3 and we have 3 equilibrium equation so beam is determinate.
Statically indeterminate beams are those beams in which unknown reaction force are more than the equilibrium equation.
As shown in figure 2 in which reaction forces are 6 and we have 3 equilibrium equation so beam is indeterminate.

Answer:
Explanation:
In this problem you need to define the force that acts upon a beam in a 3 point bending problem. I put a picture of the problem taken from Wikipedia:
In this problem the flexural strength is defined with the following formula:
where F is the force applied, L the length between the two rods, b the width of the ceramic block and d it's height.
The force is then defined as:
