Referring to Figure 2, the tied three-hinged arch is subjected to the loading shown.
Determine the tension in the cable. A horizontal cable is tied at A. A and B are hinges and C
is rocker (means only one reaction which is vertical). Answer in whole number, no decimal,
no sign, no unit.
Coordinates system to draw the figure of cable problem.
A – fixed support (0,0)
В - free (2, 3.5)
250N Down
С - free (4.5, yс)
500N Down
Note: C is lower than B
D- fixed support (6, 2)
Find the tension in segment AB. Answer in whole number, no decimal, no sign, no unit.
