Degree of static indeterminacy of a rigid-jointed plane frame having 15 members, 3 reaction components and 14 joints is

A. 2

B. 3

C. 6

D. 8

Answer: Option C

Solution(By Examveda Team)

To determine the degree of static indeterminacy (Ds) for a rigid-jointed plane frame, use the formula: Ds = (3m + R) - (3j + A)

where:

m = number of members,
R = number of reaction components,
j = number of joints,
A = number of internal hinges (A = 0 in this case).

Given:

m = 15 (members),
R = 3 (reaction components),
j = 14 (joints),
A = 0 (no internal hinges).

Substitute these values into the formula:

Ds = (3 * 15 + 3) - (3 * 14 + 0)

Ds = (45 + 3) - (42)

Ds = 48 - 42 = 6

Thus, the degree of static indeterminacy is 6.

    M=15
    R=3
    J=14
    we know that,
    Degree of static indeterminacy for plane frames (Ds)=(3m+R)-(3j+A)
    but here is no internal hinge so A=0
    Ds=(3x15+3)-(3x14)
    Ds =6

    static indeterminacy =static internal indeterminacy+ static external indeterminacy
    i.e. Ds=DSi+ DSe
    Dsi=Re-3 and Dsi=3m-(3j-3)
    use the above prescribed formulae you will get answer as 6

    For a rigid jointed 2D plane, the formula is 3m+re-3j
    Where, m= no of members
    Re= reaction
    J= no of joints

    Re=3
    M=15
    J=14
    Ds=(Re+3m)-3j
    =(3+3×15)-3×14
    =6

    =3*15+3-3*14-0=6
    No hybrid joints present hence the release is 0
