Problem 5.3
For the rigid stairway frame shown in Figure P5-3, determine (1) the displacements at node 2, (2) the
support reacions, and (3) the local nodal forces acting on each element. Draw the bending moment diagram
for the whole frame. Remember that the angle between elements 1 and 2 is preserved as deformation takes
places. What size A36 steel channel section would be needed to keep the allowable bending stress less than
two-thirds of the yield stress? (For A36 steel, the yield stress is 36,000 psi.)
The channel section required to keep the allowable bending stress less than two-thirds of the yield
stress is 6 8.2 based on Mmax = 106,900 lbin.

Problem 5.11
For the rigid frame shown in Figure P5-11, determine the displacements and rotations of the nodes, the
element forces, and the reactions. The values of E, A, and I to be used are listed next to each figure.
I exploited symmetry to solve this problem. The given structure is symmetric along the y-axis at
node 2. The applied force is halved; Fapplied = -10,000 N. The global stiffness matrix for the two node system
is, K is,
