Determine the scalar components of the reactions at pins A and C.

Note: the sign of a scalar component indicates the sense of the force. A positive sense indicates the force points towards the positive end of the corresponding axis.

Strategy:

\n

       Draw a free body diagram of the entire frame and each of its legs.  Note that members AB or BC are not two-force bodies; therefore the direction of the forces at A and C don't align with the members and should be represented with x and y components.  Since all of the free body diagrams have four unknowns, there is no simple way to find one unknown using just one equation.  The general approach in this case is to write two equations which contain the same two unknowns, then solve them simultaneously.

Known:

\n

$M_E = \\var{display(abs(M_E))}$ and $D = \\var{display(abs(F_D))}$

\n

Determine necessary angles:

\n

$\\begin{align}\\alpha &= \\tan^{-1}\\left(\\frac{\\var{y1}}{\\var{x1}}\\right) = \\var{siground(alpha,4)}°  & \\beta &= \\tan^{-1}\\left(\\frac{\\var{y2}}{\\var{x2}}\\right) = \\var{siground(beta,4)}°\\end{align}$

\n

Use FBDs II and III to generate two independent equations containing $B_x$ and $B_y$:

\n
\n

$\\begin{align} \\textrm{II: } \\Sigma M_A &= 0    & \\textrm{III: } \\Sigma M_C &= 0\\\\B_x (\\var{y1}) + B_y (\\var{x1}) &=  \\simplify{{sign(fd)} D   ({y1/2})}&   - B_x (\\var{y2}) + B_y (\\var{x2}) &=  \\simplify{ - {sign(me)} M_E  } \\\\  \\var{scalar(y1)} B_x + \\var{scalar(x1)}B_y& = \\var{fd scalar( y1/2) }\\qquad (1) &  - \\var{scalar(y2)} B_x + \\var{Scalar(x2)} B_y &=  \\var{scalar(-M_E ) }\\qquad (2)\\end{align}$

\n

Solve equations (1) and (2) simultaneously to find $B_x$ and $B_y$:

\n

$\\qquad B_x = \\var{display(Bx)}  \\qquad\\qquad\\qquad\\qquad\\qquad  B_y = \\var{display(By)}$
