Lecture

Determining Forces with Arc-and-Cable

Description

This lecture explains how to use an arc-and-cable to determine forces at supports, starting with a simple system and progressing to more complex ones. The method involves drawing forces in a Cremona diagram and analyzing subsystems to find support forces. By applying this method to various structures, such as trusses and beams, one can accurately determine support forces.
