For frame ABCD EqS are,

Mab, Mba, Mbc, Mcb, Mcd, Mdc, ∑Mb=0 ∑Mc=0.

It has to be degree of kinematic indeterminancy.

Snehal Wankhede said:   1 decade ago
Answer is B.
Lets say for frame ABCD EqS are,
Mab, Mba, Mbc, Mcb, Mcd, Mdc, ΣMb=0 ΣMc=0.

If there are 3 equations then the 3 joints will be there to solve and get the answer.

I can't understand how it is. Please someone explain it.

Yogita sharma said:   1 decade ago
Force can act on horizontal and vertical at any joints.

Udhyhakumar said:   1 decade ago
This is applicable for all the types of slopes and deflection method.

PAVITHRA said:   1 decade ago
VL is vertical line.

Jyothsna said:   1 decade ago
What is meant by VL?

Firdous said:   1 decade ago
It VL depend on no of joints. As we have to determine joint rotations which in turn give us unknown moments.
