RESULTANT FORCE SYSTEMS II
Instructions:
• Format: Calculations and drawings must be handwritten (paper of your choice).
• Clarity: Organize your work neatly, ensuring it's easy to read and follow.
PROBLEM 6.1 [2.5 pts]: Replace the force system acting on the post by a resultant force, and
specify where its line of action intersects the post AB measured from point B.
,PROBLEM 6.2 [2.5 pts]: If the resultant force is required to act at the center of the slab,
determine the magnitude of the column loadings FA and FB and the magnitude of the resultant
force.
PROBLEM 6.3 [2.5 pts]: Determine the length b of the triangular load and its position a on the
beam such that the equivalent resultant force is zero and the resultant couple moment is 8
kN.m clockwise.
, PROBLEM 6.4 [2.5 pts]: Replace the distributed loading with an equivalent resultant force,
and specify its location on the beam measured from point A.
