On this quiz, “maximum” refers to the highest vertical point on the influence graph and “minimum” refers to the lowest vertical point on the graph.Draw the influence line for the vertical reaction at A. What is the line’s minimum value? Let L1 = 5 m and L2 = 8 m.

Determine the beam deflection at point H. Assume that EI = 1.91 × 1010 kN-mm2 is constant.

The truss is pin supported at A and rocker supported at E. Assume all members are pin connected. Determine the magnitude of the force in member AI. Let F1 = 550 lb, F2 = 900 lb, and L = 5 ft.

Draw the influence line for the moment at B. What is the line’s minimum value? Let L1 = 5 m and L2 = 13 m.

On this quiz, “maximum” refers to the highest vertical point on the influence graph and “minimum” refers to the lowest vertical point on the graph.Draw the influence line for the vertical reaction at C. What is the line’s maximum value? Let L1 = 3 m and L2 = 13 m.

On this quiz, “maximum” refers to the highest vertical point on the influence graph and “minimum” refers to the lowest vertical point on the graph.Draw the influence line for the vertical reaction at A. What is the line’s minimum value? Let L1 = 5 m and L2 = 10 m.

Assuming that the live loads are transmitted to the bottom chords of the truss, draw the influence line for the force in member BC. What is the line’s minimum value? Let L = 12 ft.

The beam supports a uniform live load of 400 lb/ft. Determine the maximum positive moment that can be developed at point B. Assume the support at A is a pin and C is a roller. The influence lines for VB and MB are shown, along with the peak values of the influence lines.

The relations between M/EI, slope, and deflections are the same as the relations between load, shear, and bending moment.

Assuming that the live loads are transmitted to the bottom chords of the truss, draw the influence line for the force in member DH. What is the line’s maximum value? Let L = 18 ft.
