3. - Analysis and design of structures strongly relates to deformations caused by
loads applied to the structure.
- Too large deformations should be avoided, as they may prevent the structure
from fulfilling the purpose for which it was intended.
- Principles of statics may sometimes make it impossible to determine the forces in
a member of a structure , as statics is based on the assumption of undeformable,
rigid structures.
- Considering engineering structures as deformable makes it possible to compute
forces that are statically indeterminate.

Structures for which internal forces and reactions cannot be
determined from statics alone are said to be statically indeterminate.
Here, the reactions (the external forces) cannot be determined by
simply drawing a FBD and writing the corresponding equilibrium
equations.
The equilibrium equations must be complemented by relationships
involving deformations obtained by considering the geometry.
A structure will be statically indeterminate whenever it is held by more
supports than are required to maintain its equilibrium.

Structures for which internal forces and reactions cannot be
determined from statics alone are said to be statically indeterminate.
Redundant reactions are replaced with unknown loads which along
with the other loads must produce compatible deformations.
Deformations due to actual loads and redundant reactions are
determined separately and then added.

The rigid bar AD is supported by two steel wires of 1.5 mm diameter (E = 200GPa) and a
pin and bracket at A. Knowing that the wires were initially taut, determine:
(a) the additional tension in each wire when a 1kN load P is applied at D.
(b) the corresponding deflection of point D.

strain. There is no stress associated with the thermal strain

Superposition method to find force at point B of restrained rod AB
undergoing thermal expansion. (a) Initial rod length; (b) thermally
expanded rod length; (c) force P pushes point B back to zero
deformation.
Treat the additional support as redundant
and apply the principle of superposition.
The thermal deformation and the deformation
from the redundant support must be compatible.

22. Poisson’s Ratio
Associated with the elongation of a member in axial tension, there is a transverse
contraction, which is illustrated in the figure below.
The transverse contraction during a tensile test is related to the longitudinal elongation by
Poisson’s ratio is dimensionless, with typical values in the 0.25–0.35 range. 22

the normal strain components resulting from the

Deformation of unit cube under multiaxial loading:
(a) unloaded; (b) deformed.
1) Each effect is linearly related to the load
that produces it.
2) The deformation resulting form any given
load is small and does not affect the
conditions of application of the other
loads.

angle between the sides,

load also results in a shearing strain.
An initially cubic element oriented as in
