Six fundamental methods of supporting beam are shown below: Which cases fall under the category of statically indeterminate beams? Correct Answer d, e, f

Explanation:

The beam is a structural member that is subjected to transverse loading to its axis.

Continuous beam:

  • It is a statically indeterminate multi-span beam on hinged support.
  • The end span may be cantilever, may be freely supported or fixed supported.
  • It is a beam having more than 2 supports.

Overhanging beam:

  • It is defined as a beam that has its one or both ends stretching out past its support.
  • It can have any number of supports.
  • It is a statically determinate multi-span beam on hinged support.

Simply supported beam:

  • A simply supported beam is a type of beam that has pinned support at one end and a roller support at the other end.
  • It is a statically determinate multi-span beam on hinged support.

Cantilever beam: 

  • A beam fixed at one end and free at the other end is known as a cantilever beam.
  • It comes under statically determinate beams.

From the above,

Statically determinate beams

  1. Cantilever beam
  2. Simply supported beam
  3. Overhanging beam

Statically indeterminate beams

  1. Propped cantilever beam:

  2. Fixed beam

  3. Continuous beam
