    1) To analyze inclined members in a frame, loads on the member must be transformed into the local member axis directions which are perpendicular and parallel to the inclined member. 2) Analyzing determinate frames is similar to beams but requires splitting the frame into individual members and accounting for axial forces and loads on joints between members. 3) The general steps are to find reactions, split the frame into members, find member end forces using equilibrium, resolve loads onto member axes, then analyze each member as a beam to find axial, shear and moment diagrams.

    CE 311 STRUCTURAL THEORY

    August 26, 2020

    INCLINED LOADS
    For members that are inclined on an angle, it is often most convenient to analyze them by transforming all the
    loads on the member into the local member axis direction ( perpendicular and parallel to the inclined member).
    Method for Analyzing Determinate Frames

    Analyzing determinate frames is very similar to analyzing determinate beams,


    except that you need to split up the frame into separate members (which are
    each individually analyzed as beams). There is also the added complexity of
    inclined members and the inclusion of axial forces in the analysis, which we
    previously neglected when we were analyzing beams.

    The general steps for analyzing a determinate frame are:

    1. Use equilibrium to find all reaction forces.


    2. Split the frame into separate members.
    Any point load or moment which acts directly on a joint between two or more
    members must be placed on only ONE of the members when they are split up. It does
    not matter which member gets the point load, as long as it is only on one.
    3. . Find all of the forces at the ends of each member using equilibrium on a free body
    diagram of the member alone
    4. Resolve all of the loads on the member into the local member axis directions (i.e.
    perpendicular to and parallel to the member).

    5. Now the axial moment, shear force and bending moment diagrams may be found by
    solving each member as if it was a beam .
    6. (Optional) Use the results from each member to draw overall axial force, shear force
    and bending moment diagrams for the entire structure.
