Learning Outcomes:
At the end of this lecture, students should be able to :
Horizontal load
Nonsymmetrical vertical load
Nonsymmetrical geometry
( but with proper horizontal
restrained)
Determine the internal moment at the joints of the frame shown. There is a pin
at E and D and a fixed support at A. EI is constant.
Solution:
By inspection, the pin at E will prevent the frame from side-sway.

Solution:
By inspection, this frame will sway due to non-
symmetrical of vertical load and no horizontal

Ax = 1.73 kN Dx = 0.81 kN
FX = 0
R = 1.73 - 0.81 = 0.92 kN
Ax = 1.73 kN Dx = 0.81kN
