Introduction
What is statically DETERMINATE structure?
When all the forces (reactions) in a structure can be determined
from the equilibrium equations its called statically determinate
structure
Structure having unknown forces equal to the available
equilibrium equations

No. of unknown = 2
No. of equilibrium equations = 2
2 = 2 thus statically determinate

Introduction
What is statically INETERMINATED structure
Structure having more unknown forces than available equilibrium
equations
Additional equations needed to solve the unknown reactions

No. of unknown = 3
No. of equilibrium equations = 2
3 2 thus statically Indeterminate

How to find the degree of Static

Indeterminacy
For beams
2m+ ra-2j
Where
m= no of member or span
ra = no of restrains/ reactions
j= no of joint

2(3) + 5 -2(4) = 3 degree indeterminate

How to find the degree of Static

Indeterminacy
For frames
3m+ ra-3j
Where
m= no of member or span
ra = no of restrains/ reactions
j= no of joint

3(3) + 6 3(4) =3 degree indeterminate

How to find the degree of Static

Indeterminacy
For truss
m+ ra-2j
Where
m= no of member or span
ra = no of restrains/ reactions
j= no of joint

9 + 5 -2(6) =2 degree indeterminate

Indeterminate Structure
Why we study indeterminate structure
Most of the structures designed today are statically
indeterminate
Reinforced concrete buildings are considered in most
cases as a statically indeterminate structures since
the columns & beams are poured as continuous
member through the joints & over the supports
More stable compare to determinate structure or in
another word safer.
In many cases more economical than determinate.
The comparison in the next page will enlighten more

Stability in case of over load

Contrast
Determinate Structure

Indeterminate Structure

Support will not develop the

horizontal force & moments that
necessary to prevent total collapse

Will develop horizontal force &

moment reactions that will hold
the beam

No load redistribution

Has the tendency to redistribute

its load to its redundant supports

When the plastic hinge formed

certain collapse for the system

When the plastic hinge formed the

system would be a determinate
structure
